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!)
