Does private mortgage insurance change the foreclosure or deed in lieu proceedings?

Private mortgage insurance or PMI is insurance to protect the lender if the home is foreclosed upon and there is a deficiency. That deficiency is paid by the insurance company. It would not appear to have an effect on the foreclosure proceeding, just on your liability for a deficiency. However it is to your advantage also to have MI if your house goes into foreclosure. Not only do they pay the lender and cure a portion of the definciency, but often they get involved up front and try to work with the borrower and lender both to avert the foreclosure. That way they are paying a lower claim and the borrower gets to keep their house. I've even heard of the insurance company helping the borrower get short term loans, renegotiate the mortgage or helping them find a buyer.


Can a cosigner take your house?

The answer to this question can be complicated and I recommend that you check out your State laws. I am also making the assumption that when you say "co signer" you mean cosigned on the mortgage and not some other obligation. It is important to understand how your title is currently recorded. Are you both on title? As far as a lender is concerned, the answer is NO. If the person is a cosigner on your mortgage they would have to remove you from having any obligation on the loan. This can be done by the current co borrower refinancing the home. This of course requires your cooperation and willingness. You can both agree to sell the home. That would be an acceptable way to free the co signer from the obligation. The co signer "could" file suit in court and have a court compel you cooperate. If this is your primary residence, then most courts would require some significant justification for forcing you out. I have seen this happen in cases of divorce, failure to make the monthly payments, and once when a borrower was destroying the home. If the co signer has just "changed their mind about co signing or they are mad at you and want to use this as revenge, then they most likely have an uphill battle ahead of them. Please feel free to contact me any time. I look forward to answering your mortgage questions and helping you with all of your mortgage needs. I am always available for you, your family and friends.

Can a person remove their name as a cosigner for a vehicle?

No, the primary borrower would need to refinance the vehicle in their name only or with a different co-signer. Person's who agree to being a co-signer usually do so with good intentions of helping out family members or friends. Unfortunately it often turns out badly with the co-signer getting "stuck" with the debt and problems with their personal credit.
