This will depend upon how the property was held. More information is required, such as the relations of the parties: did each of the three people hold a 1/3 interest, or is the property titled between a husband and wife and then a third person? In the event that the three owners were tenants in common (no right of survivorship), then the dead party's interest in the home would pass to their family according to your state's intestacy succession scheme.
The wife take it.
The property will become owned by the state in which the property is located. When this happens we say the property "escheats" to the state.
Typically property that cannot be claimed by kin when someone dies goes to the government. If money is owed on the house it is given to the bank.
If your husband has a will then his property is distributed accordingly, if he not have a will then the distribution of property is determined by a probate court.
In most cases the spouse has a right in the property, even if they are not on the deed. If there is no will, the spouse typically inherits the property.
When a person dies and has no heirs or next of kin their property "escheats" to the state.
Their share goes into their estate.
When two people own property by right of survivorship and one dies the interest of the decedent disappears and the survivor becomes the sole owner of the property.
The surviving spouse becomes the sole owner.
the city/state will sieze the property and do 1 of 2 things... have an auction to obtain the monies owed and/or keep the property and do as they mean fit
The mortgage obligation remains on the property. If the holder of the mortgage dies then her heirs own the mortgage.
It passes to the decedent's heirs, the spouse of which will be one.
