(d) Exemption of specified transfers or dispositions
With respect to a real property loan secured by a lien on residential real property containing less than five dwelling units, including a lien on the stock allocated to a dwelling unit in a cooperative housing corporation, or on a residential manufactured home, a lender may not exercise its option pursuant to a due-on-sale clause upon-
(5) a transfer to a relative resulting from the death of a borrower;
(6) a transfer where the spouse or children of the borrower become an owner of the property;
A "transfer to a relative resulting from the death of a borrower" clearly prohibits the triggering of the due-on-sale clause when a relative inherits property from the borrower/owner.

Children will normally inherit their parents' property, which will include the equity in a house, even if the mortgage is not fully paid.
No, the estate is responsible for the mortgage. This sounds like a case for getting the estate set up and get the house sold as quickly as possible.
The children are not directly responsible in Pennsylvania. The estate is responsible to settle all the debts. Until these have been paid, the children are not entitled to receive anything.
A property cannot be mortgaged twice at once. Additionally, you must hold the title to the property to place it under mortgage. Unless the other mortgage is paid off and your parents give you the house, you will not be able to get a mortgage on it.
Parents are completely responsible for their children's wellbeing, so it's parents to children.
