Do you still make mortgage payments while your home is on the market to sell?

okeydokey asked:


My friend was selling his house and couldn’t make the mortgage payments while the house was on the market. He said the real estate agent/company would pay his mortgage while it was up for sale. Then when the house sold, they deducted it from the price of the sale. How is this done?
Also, if you don’t make any mortgage payments while the house is on the market can it go into foreclosure?
