Best Answer

Yes. The buyer's attorney will contact the bank and arrange to pay off the mortgage from the proceeds of the sale. Those proceeds will not be paid directly over to you, only the amount that exceeds the amount due on the mortgage. If the proceeds of the sale aren't enough to pay off the mortgage you must come up with the difference or the sale will not go through.
