Pay it off. The paperwork will be returned to you signifying it has been paid in full. Take this paperwork and go to the County real estate Records Office and the Tax Collectors Office and record the property as being without encumbrances of any kind..

If the hazard insurance from your mortgage agreement was cancelled do you get a refund and the mortgage payments go down?

Mortgage insurance is required when you have less than 20% down or equity in your home. Once you reach that percentage of ownership, you can cancel the insurance. Hazard insurance is different. Most Morgagees (Lenders) have a clause that forces you to continually have hazard insurance without lapses or they will assign insurance for you. The assigned insurance generally is more expensive than all other alternatives. If you cancel your current hazard insurance you would likely receive a refund but it would be unwise to cancel without getting insurance from another company... and especially unwise to spend the money. Your payments would not go down, but likely up because of the assigned insurance.

The law does not require lenders to consider later appraisals, but some may be willing to do so.
