Best Answer

Yes and it happens quite often. Usually when you let you Homeowners insurance cancel or change companies and fail to notify your insurance company to send a copy to the mortgagee. If the mortgagee does not have proof that you have insurance and have them listed on such insurance, they will place "force-placed" coverage on the property to protect themselves and they will charge you for this coverage. As long as you get them notified and proof quickly, they will cancel their policy and refund you the premium. Make sure you know that the coverage they purchase on your behalf only covers them and covers no contents of yours, no liability coverage, and only covers the bare minimum coverage. And it is usually more expensive than homeowners you buy on your own. When you get a mortgage on your home your agreement is that you keep insurance on the home. If you let it cancel or don't have such insurance you are in breech of contract and they could foreclose on your home or put this coverage on it, their choice.

Does homeowners insurance pay off your mortgage if the house is lost?

Homeowners Insurance and Total Loss.It all depends on what type of coverage you have. If you have replacement coverage, The insurance will pay to rebuild your house so your mortgage continues as usual. If you are not rebuilding then it will pay your mortgage within policy limits. So it is important that you have adequate coverage on your policy.If your not rebuilding, the insurance company will generally pay the Mortgage Company first before any remaining money is disbursed to the home buyer. Usually the check is issued with both the buyer and the mortgage company as payees. You must however continue to make your monthly mortgage payment until the insurance settlement comes through. If you miss monthly payments you can wreck your credit just when you need it most.You usually will not need to pay off the mortgage yourself. The check is issued to you and the company. You send it into them, they sign off on it and send it back to you. You then endorse it to pay the contractor to keep building your new home. Meanwhile, you keep paying your mortgage. The mortgagee is only listed on the policy so they are notified if the policy is canceled so they can force place coverage on the policy because they have an insurable interest.You have the OPTION of paying it off and taking out a new mortgage to build a new home with whatever you have left over or whatever you can afford with that new mortgage.

What type of letter should be sent to a mortgage company when your partner agrees on you coming off the mortgage?

First you need to understand that a mortgage company will not normally let one party to a joint mortgage contract off the mortgage. You and your partner can not agree to change the mortgage between you, your contract is with the Mortgage company, NOT YOUR PARTNER.It is not in the Mortgage companies interest to allow a change to an existing mortgage as you are BOTH liable for the payments - if one of you stops paying they will go after the other for all the money.To get out of the situation you have to repay all the money you borrowed and get a new mortgage in just one of your names. This usually means one or other partner has to buy the other out.
