If you want to keep the house yourself, you should consider refinancing into your name only and have your friend quit claim off of the deed and into your name only. In this current market though, you'll need a good real estate appraisal to assess what the current value is. Many homeowners are upside down (owe more than what the home is worth) due to value depreciations. If this is the case with your home, you would not be able to refinance as the value would not support the amount of loan that you need to payoff the existing loan. I hope this isn't the case for you, but you need to assess what the true value of the home is.
