Sorta - this issue is a bit more complex when it comes to shared property. If you live in a multi-generational home technically owned by your grandfather and he passes away then the house may be seized during any debt resolution or bankruptcy filing. Debts don't get passed on but they can eliminate the value of estates being transferred. I think it's perfectly legitimate to question whether any assets or debts should be transferred on death but right now society is such that some people will be depending on that inheritance since they're inheriting the roof that they've been living under all their life.
