Without your brother, you three cannot sell the property in whole. At the most you all can do is to sell your parts (ie., undivided 3/4th share of the property).
If it is feasible to negotiate with your brother, you can pay him his share and ask him to release his share in the property in favour of one of you.

Mr Siva has suggested rightly you can at the most sell your share but first you need to partition the property and demarcate, who gets what else, pay your brother for his share of property and get it relinquished in your names. But I must say either ways your at the mercy of your brother, since he may create hurdles in settling the matter amicably.

ur brother also has a right over the property, so only three of you cannot do anything. Of course you can partition your property and sell your share.

Please do not forget. Your mother has also got one share. Hence, each one's share is 1/4th. If the brother will not go along with you for selling the property, then suit for partition has to be filed.
