Hi janiceg,

A warranty deed will not be helpful in this situation as your mother is deceased. You need to file an affidavit of heirship with the probate court to change the name on the property title. Once the property is in your name, you can refinance the existing loan and pay off the balloon mortgage with the refinance loan amount.
