No, not as long as they didn't co-sign the mortgage. However, if the parents have died and their property is subject to a mortgage the lender will foreclose on the property if the mortgage isn't paid. If the heirs want to keep or sell the property they must keep the mortgage payments current.

Yes IF the loan is really a legal mortgage loan that meets the IRS rules for it to be a mortgage loan. This is possible when you and they meet the enclosed rules. Generally, home mortgage interest is any interest you pay on a loan secured by your home (main home or a second home). The loan may be a mortgage to buy your home, a second mortgage, a line of credit, or a home equity loan. You can deduct home mortgage interest only if you meet all the following conditions. You must file Form 1040 and itemize deductions on Schedule A (Form 1040). *You must be legally liable for the loan. You cannot deduct payments you make for someone else if you are not legally liable to make them. Both you and the lender must intend that the loan be repaid. In addition, there must be a true debtor-creditor relationship between you and the lender. *The mortgage must be a secured debt on a qualified home in which you have an ownership interest. (Generally, your mortgage is a secured debt if you put your home up as collateral to protect the interests of the lender. The term "qualified home" means your main home or second home. For details, see Publication 936.) For more information go to the IRS gov web site and use the search box for publication 936
That all depends on how the property was titled. If your parents owned the property by a survivorship deed your father is now the sole owner of the property and he can grant a reverse mortgage if he so desires. You would have a claim to some proportionate interest only if they owned the property as tenants in common and your mother didn't leave her share to your father in her will. You would have no interest if the property was marital property and your parents live in a community property state.If you have questions you should consult an attorney in your jurisdiction who can review the situation and explain your rights.That all depends on how the property was titled.

Yes. If you inherit a piece of property, including a house with a mortgage, you are legally obligated to pay its bills.
Yes, this is know as a gift/loan. The parents are deemed to make the loan at market interest rates. The parents should report the amount of forgiven interest on their tax return. There is a gift tax issue because of the forgiven interest, but no tax is likely, unless the parents are making other gifts as well. The dad may give their son and daughter in law each $13,000 ($26,000 total). Mom may also give them each $13,000. Between mom and dad giving to son and daughter in law, they may give $52,000 annually in actual gifts or forgiven interest. however, if the gift is over $26,000, they will want to file form 709 to show gift splitting.
