You need to contact an attorney and have the attorney, pro bono (free), write a letter to your father for you asking for a copy of the trust. You cannot contract with an attorney until you are 18, but perhaps a guardian of your estate could be appointed and get your inheritance if the trust in fact names you as a beneficiary.

You need to contact a probate lawyer to determine what rights you may have in your mother's estate. It is not possible to advise you in a public forum as to what you should do. In general, there should be a sharing of your mother's separate property, and her 50% interest in the community property, between your mother's husband and her descendants. Without more information, however, it is not possible to advise you. It may be that your mother's estate needs to go through probate. Again, a good probate lawyer should be able to advise you.

Can my brother sell a property without letting me know even if I’m the one who has the power of attorney?

The owner of property can sell property. If your mother owns property, and signs a deed, then the ownership of the property will transfer. If that happens without your knowledge, then it has happened. Basically, if your brother is willing to commit fraud (which is what that would be, having a person you know is demented sign a deed), you need to see a lawyer to try to comprehensively protect your parents' assets from that person.
