Best Answer

If she had insurance to cover the balance owed, then the debt could be eliminated and the Probate judge will consider ownership according to remaining heirs- husband and children. If she did not leave money to pay the balance, the mortgage holder may or may not allow you to assume the loan, depending on your personal credit record. The mortgage company may exercise an option to repossess the property if the heirs can not pay off the remaining note.

Is it legal to make a mother to repay her son's debt?

I am not an attorney, but if I were asked to judge I would say that if the mother somehow took part in the debt, by co-signing for example, or if the son is a minor and under the mother's authority, then she is responsible for the debt. If the son was an adult and the mother made no legal agreement, then no, she is not responsible for the debt.
