Here’s where urgency matters. Once the lender sends the “due and payable” letter, the clock starts.
0–30 days: Lender notifies estate.
6 months: Heirs must resolve the loan.
Possible extensions: Up to 12 months total if progress is shown.
You’re under contract to sell.
You’ve applied for refinancing.
You’ve listed the property and can show marketing activity.
Failing to communicate can lead to foreclosure even if you intend to act.
