Mortgage Servicer Gives Inconsistent PMI Removal Rules on Every Call
Homeowners who reach the loan-to-value threshold for PMI removal are stonewalled by mortgage servicers who provide different removal criteria on every call, preventing them from stopping unnecessary PMI payments. The Homeowners Protection Act requires automatic PMI cancellation at 80% LTV but servicers exploit ARM loan complexity to delay. Borrowers need tools that document servicer representations and enforce statutory PMI termination rights.
