Initially your sister was owner, after transfer, your mother became absolute owner of the house.non payment of consideration will not make any differences as it was a gift under the law. As n absolute owner, your mother was well within her power to nominate any one, thus she exercise her right and nominate your brother, after her death your brother became absolute owner of the property, as an absolute owner he has every right to dispose or give or shares his property in any way. In case, he want to make your sister or any one as co-owner, he has every right to do so.

It can be gift deed or transfer deed or settlement deed. It is his choice.

Legally you all 3 are legal heirs of the your deceased mother to the extent of 1/3 share each and your brother can include your sister as asked by you.
