Re: Death of a spouse

Unless there was insurance on the loan, the loan still must be paid.

The property may or may not automatically transfer fully to the spouse (I'd have to see the wording of the deed). If it does not, a probate would be necessary.

If you're in metro Atlanta, feel free to call me so I may look at the deed and advise you further.
