The bank CAN go after the house. If the heirs are hiding assets other than the house that are the rightful property of the deceased's creditors, then yes, the a bank (like a credit card bank) can come after you. Consult an attorney for more specifics about your situation.

Best of luck.*******The above is for informational purposes only and does not create an attorney-client privilege.*********
