Best Answer

The mortgage must be paid. When a property has been encumbered by a mortgage the property remains subject to the mortgage even if the title is transferred or the original owner dies. You need to pay off the mortgage or make arrangements with the bank to transfer it to your own name. If the mortgage isn't paid the bank will take possession of the property by foreclosure.
