If you no longer want to own the property you can sell your interest to the other owner or to a third party if you can find someone who wants to take over your interest in the property.

If it is a large tract and you want to divide it you can arrange to have the tract surveyed and subdivided and an attorney can draft deeds to legally transfer the subdivided parcels to each respective owner. Each will become the sole owner of a smaller tract.

If you want to sell and the co-owner does not want to buy your interest then you must file a petition in court to have your land partitioned. (See related question link.)

An undivided interest in real property means that if two people (Jack & Harry) own property each owns a one half undivided share in the whole property. That means that each owner is entitled to the use and possession of the whole property. A one half undivided interest means that if the property was sold or partitioned, that owner would receive one half of the net proceeds. The only way the property could be "divided" would be if the two owners agree to physically divide the property IF the property is large enough to be divided. For example, if there is a one acre tract, Jack & Harry could agree on an equal division of the property into two half-acre lots and have new deed descriptions for those lots drafted by an attorney who specializes in real estate. They could have a survey made that shows each lot. Each owner would release their interest in the other's lot. There are different methods that could be used but the best would to divide the property into Lots A and B and have Jack & Harry convey Lot A to Harry, and have Jack & Harry convey Lot B to Jack.

If parents sold an undivided interest in property to a son for a fair market value and the parents decide to sell can the son be forced to sell?

If you have an undivided interest in property you cannot be forced to sell by the co-owners. Only a court can force a sale. Your parents would need to petition the court to partition the property. The court would divide the property if possible. If not possible then the property would be sold and the proceeds, after legal costs, would be divided amongst the co-tenants. A partition proceeding can be costly. However, your parents could sell their interest in the property to a third party who would then become your co-tenant in common.
