Best Answer

If you signed the mortgage you are fully responsible for paying it. If you don't keep up the payments the lender will foreclose and take possession of the property. If your name is on the mortgage your credit will be ruined and you may find that you owe the bank costs associated with the foreclosure.

You should consult with an attorney who can review your situation and explain your rights and options.

What happens when you die and leave a mortgaged house to someone?

They now have a house with a mortgage on it. If they cannot, or do not wish to, pay the mortgage, they will have to sell the house, pay off the mortgage, and keep the remainder of the money. The mortgage holder may require you to get a new mortgage on the property, rather than assume the existing loan. You are essentially leaving them what ever value you own of the house.


You and your boyfriend are buying a house and he wants only his name on the loan and deed. You're both to pay the mortgage. When you sell the property how will you get half of the equity?

The ONLY reason a person would request that you not be on the deed and mortgage would be to INSURE that you would have no legal right to the property. If he expects you to help pay the mortgage you would be paying for property you do not own. You and your boyfriend are not buying a house. Your boyfriend is buying a house and he wants you to help him pay for it. You would be entitled to nothing when the property is sold.
