If the other beneficiary refuses to rent it and refuses to drop the price then suggest that they be the one who takes over the day-to-day running of the place and pays the service charges and ground rent. If they are in a position where a couple of grand a year extra wouldn't bother them then it seems reasonable that they take it on and save yourself the hassle. Or you could offer to sell them your half for sixty grand (or whatever) and they can sort out the sale/rental when they've got their tax bill sorted out.
