You don't need his signature. You need to file and serve. Responding is up to him. If he doesn't you can get a default order.

Can you petition to have a home sold?

Answered by attorney Gerard A. Fierro (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Gerard A. Fierro & Associates
If the divorce action is still pending then the sale of the house is generally a trial issue. If the house is at risk of being lost, then a request for a sale during the action can be made. The there is already a divorce judgment, then we would first have to consider what the Judgement says about the house. Otherwise, after the Divorce, if you both own the home, then a Complaint for Partition would be necessary to sell the home and divide the proceeds.

Can he really have this alimony reduced?

It is unlikely he can get a reduction after such a short period of time and such a long marriage if his income has gone up.
