Can real estate property be split and half of it sold when house is still mortgaged?

It all depends on the description of the property covered by the mortgage. If the entire property was described in the mortgage the bank owns an interest in it. A half cannot be sold unless the bank agrees to partially release that portion from the mortgage.
