What happens to a mortgage when someone dies?

If you inherit a property that has a mortgage, you will be responsible for making payments on that loan. If you are the sole heir, you could reach out to the mortgage servicer and ask to assume the mortgage, or sell the property. You could also choose to let the lender foreclose. Nov 22, 2021
