Best Answer

You still owe the mortgage. And you must continue to maintain the homeowners insurance. If not, the lender who holds the mortgage has the right to place "forced coverage" on the property at great expense to you. When they add "forced coverage" they simply increase your mortgage payment to adjust for the difference. And of course you must make each payment in full in order to remain current on the loan and avoid damaged credit or foreclosure.

Generally, the mortgage should have been executed by both owners. The property would remain subject to the mortgage and the survivor would need to continue making the payments. Owners in a situation where two salaries are needed to make mortgage payments should consider life insurance to cover the amount of the mortgage.Generally, the mortgage should have been executed by both owners.
