My mom has a vehicle financed In her name. She is now deceased. Will the bank let me refinance the loan to take over the loan ?

Terry Lynn Garrett
Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
The executor or administrator can ask the bank about this.  Often the lender is more than willing to have someone who inherited the car take over the loan.

May I deed property under mortgage to my sons while retaining responsibility for paying same?

Estate Planning lawyer at Speaker Law Firm
Yes, but I would never keep the mortgage in my name. You are responsible for payment, but do not have a any legal rights to it. What happens if he dies and leaves the house to someone else? You still pay. Check with the Mortgage company to get their permission, before you do anything. They may accelerate the mortgage to be paid off. In short - do not do it.
