If you have a lien on your home and you lose your home do you still have to pay?
Yes. The lien is simply a method by which a debt is secured. If the lien is on the house and the house is lost, the only thing the creditor loses is the security for the debt. The debt remains payable. If a person buys a house and borrows $100,000 to help pay for it, that person signs a promissory note to establish the debt and signs a mortgage to establish the bank's lien on the house as security for the debt. If the house burns down and there is no fire insurance, the bank has lost the security for the debt but it has not lost the debt. The mortgage (security) is useless because there is no house, but the promissory note (debt) remains in effect.

If a borrower dies with a promissory note are heirs responsible for payment?
They are not personally liable, except in the sense that the assets in the estate must be used to pay the promissory note. Thus there will that much less in the estate for them to inherit. If there are insufficient asset to pay the debt, then the holder of the note loses out on the amount that cannot be paid out of the estate.
