As a co-signer on the mortgage, you will remain obligated on the mortgage until the house is sold, paid off, or refinanced. The mortgage company could relieve you of responsibility, however, from a practical standpoint it is unlikely to occur.  If you are on title to the property, you may be able to force a sale through a partition action. If you are not on title, you may also have an equitable interest in the property, which can be used to cause a sale of the house.
