It's called repossession. The lender owns the property, the homeowner is making payments.

What part of the right to privacy act addresses homeowner associations specifically the withholding of information of legal actions taken by the BOD against a homeowner for a violation of covenants?

The right to privacy act does not typically address homeowner associations specifically. However, in the context of a homeowner association, the disclosure of legal actions taken by the Board of Directors against a homeowner for a violation of covenants is usually governed by state laws on homeowner associations and property rights, as well as the association's governing documents like its bylaws or CC&Rs. Homeowners should review these documents to understand their rights and the association's obligations regarding disclosure of legal actions.

Appliances that are not built into the home are not part of the home and are no more the property of the lender than your cloths or other personal items. No legal action can be taken against the debtor than if you take your car from the garage. Any lender that might make the claim of theft or other such accusations may be legally liable for such accusations against a party who has removed their personal items from the home.

What legal action can you take against a lender who refuses to provide a payoff when you're trying to sell your house?

Legal action depends on state laws and may vary. Visit your Circuit Court Clerk or small claims court. One of these should inform you of some sort of writ this lender would have to answer to in court. On a personal note, find the address to the office of the better business bureau. Write a letter of complaint outlining clearly the problem with the lender, and send the lender a copy. This may shake the party up some. Further, I am suprised that a payment book, if one exists, does not have that information.

Is insurance required on a house if homeowner dies?

There is no legal requirement in the U.S.A. for homeowners insurance. If there is still a mortgage on the home though, insurance is almost certainly required by the mortgage contract, but this is a contractual obligation, not a legal requirement. Failure to maintain a policy as required by the finance note can result in single interest coverage being placed by the lender and billed to the homeowner or possible foreclosure.
