Assuming that the mortgage insurance policy was in force at the time of death, and all other conditions of coverage have been met, the insurer should pay off the balance of the mortgage; that is the purpose of insurance of that type.
Thereafter, the property will pass, free of the encumbrance, to that person who may have been named as a co-owner of the property. If the decedent is shown to have been the sole owner of the property as of the time of death, it will pass according to terms of his/her Will; if there was no Will, it will normally pass according to the laws of descent and distribution of the locality in which the decedent lived at the time of his/her death, or where the property is located.

Is Mortgage Protection Life Insurance a good idea?
Mortgage Protection Life Insurance is a good idea if you want to protect your mortgage. It pays the outstanding balance of your mortgage if the mortgagor (insured person) dies. Mortgage protection life insurance coverage is usually in the form of decreasing term insurance, with the amount of coverage decreasing as the outstanding mortgage debt decreases. Usually, the proceeds of the mortgage protection life insurance are paid to the beneficiary, which is the mortgage company holding the mortgage loan. Some people choose instead to buy level term life insurance in the amount of the mortgage, and the benefits are paid to the insured's beneficiary (family member), who in turn can use the proceeds for any reason, including to pay the mortgage.
