So it all started in 2020 when I moved to other house because he insulted and beat me up, now he comes to that new house which isn't far away and keeps doing the same thing, he beat me up today because I didn't want to give him my phone. When I tell it to my mother she says we're both bad and she will sell the house, please someone help me I don't know what to do

Yeah that can't continue. You need to let someone know how bad it's gotten and that your mother won't help you; a teacher you trust, etc. Next time, before it escalates very far if possible, call the police.
