Estate of a decease person and Mortage loan
by Elsa
(Houston, tx)
Who inicistes the probate of the estate of a decease person? I'm the spouse, do I have to do it and how? What's gonna happen if I don't do it?
Also, the loan of our mortgage was under my husbands name. In oder for me to set up an automatic payment to be drawn from my account, the bank is asking me to go to the court and show the death certificate and say that I' resposible for this deabt and then take the document to the bank. Is this a normal procedure? It is safe for me to do this?
Am I in reask to loose my house or something?
