Is there anything I can do to make him see sense on this?

Well if he's "still paying his half of the mortgage" the longer it goes on, the more it's going to cost him.

All I would say is this; don't treat it as a battle that you have to win in order to prove some kind of moral principle. It's a business deal. You've offered £2,100, he's asked for £4,500. Somewhere between those two figures there's a deal to be done. Get the deal done, and move on with your life and make that "£15,000/£20,000 profit" that you're after.
