If he won't agree and both names are on it, you should retain an attorney to help you do this in a divorce proceeding. His being unreasonable and disagreeable will not help him in the divorce. Letting the house "go back" (I assume you mean foreclosure) is not a good solution as it could destroy your credit. Feel free to call if you need further help or a referral. Good luck.
