You may have rights on the property (depending on the country/laws where you live) and you should go and seek the advice of an attorney/solicitor. However, the only person who can sell a house is the person registered as the legal owner.

Can the cosigner sell the house if his name is not on the deed and the primary borrower has missed 3 payments?
No. If you are not on the deed, you can't sell the property. The only "right" you have as a cosigner is the obligation to make the payments.

Unless the deed is in your name, the house technically is not legally yours. If someone were to contest the will, you would have to fight this battle in court. This also means that if you pass away, the house would revert to probate rather than going to the person in your will. You will also need your name on the deed in order to get a loan on the property or sell the property, so it is a good idea to have your name on the deed.
