Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in North Carolina

My mother passed this month, but had no will or trust. I am living in the home. She had no mortgage, but she had a line of credit loan and a fixed rate loan. Would I be able to take over payments on that loan and what would I have to do to take steps to get that done?
