The loan ends when the last borrower—or an eligible non-borrowing spouse—passes away or no longer lives in the home. At this time, the loan principal and all accrued interest must be repaid. You or your heirs will have the option to repay the balance through the sale of the home or by paying off the mortgage balance with other funds. If the loan balance exceeds the home’s value, you or your heirs can also sign over the home’s title to the lender and walk away.
