The marriage is no problem, however the new spouse is not protected in the reverse mortgage unless a refinance is done into both of their names. As a result if the borrower passes away the new spouse will have 6 months to sell the property or refinance it... or to turn it over to the lender.

Can the second mortgage holder force the sell of your home?

Yes. If you do not pay the 2nd mortgage, you can lose your home in a foreclosure sale. The difference between the first and 2nd mortgage holder in that case varies according to the unit of government. The law in the United States is according to state law. At one time in this state, the first mortgage holder had certain rights concerning whether or not to foreclose. There was a time period when the first mortgage holder had the chance to try to sell the first mortgage or something like that. I have not kept up with all the changes in the law involving second mortgages. Still, when there is a foreclosure, the first mortgage holder gets paid off first. If there is anything left, the second mortgage holder gets paid. Some commercial property has as much as a fifth mortgage.
