Can a mortgage company keep the unused portion of insurance claim money when the job is completed and inspected?

According to the person I spoke with at the Texas Department of Insurance (as this answer may vary with each state), the answer is no. The money belongs to the homeowner. The mortgage company must release the funds when the homeowner satisfies the requirements of the mortgage company, usually this is signed documents, contractor's invoice, and an inspection. Theoretically the mortgage company should then release the funds to the contractor and the homeowner. (Theoretically b/c our mortgage company comes up with something new they need every 2 weeks. We've been fighting for our money for 10 weeks now. So good luck!)

How do you know if you had mortgage insurance?

This depends on what you mean by mortgage insurance. If you are talking about products like PMI (Premium Mortgage Insurance) look on your escrow billing and it will be listed. If you are talking about a life insurance policy that would be either through credit life with your mortgage company or separately through an insurance company.
