Generally loans on dead people are not transferred . The Purchasers usually get the property refinanced and settle the loan of deceased borrower the lender is interested in his money and the interest.

This is called as subrogation of mortgage for it you will have to go to bank and speak to a manager regarding it then the mortgage/loan can be transferred to other person. to confirm legal heirs you will need a succession certificate/declaratory decree.please visit your local lawyer for further details.
