PMI Insurance

I just recently found out that a townhome that I qualify to get rid of my PMI insurance due to the fact that the property values are going up considerably. I called my lender and explained to them waht it was I was trying o do. I recieved a document in the mail saying that I can not get rid of the insurance at this time because I had to late payments on with in the past 24 months. My question is, is there anything else I can do, that would help me get rid of my PMI. **Please See My Profile**

    All I can suggest is to refinance, but this would usually cost more than your PMI. If you needed money to invest in other properties and could refinance at below 80%LTV and get what you need, this would be an additional benefit. Otherwise I suspect you are stuck until you go 2 years without a late payment.
    Perhaps some one else has a suggestion- personally I never make late payments because my credit is important to my investing plans, so I have no experience in this.

    Duplicate post - see answers in other posting.

    This is NOT a duplicate post. The first post was related to how to deal with a mortgage company that was requiring a pay-off to close a pending loan.

    This post is related to how to deal with the auto-loan company to fight their sudden claims of deficiency after years of silence.

    Great idea NewKid.

    However, which State has jurisdiction? The state I live in now or the state I lived in when the auto loan was originally created? I am planning to move to another state shortly, will that affect anything?

    Thanks.

    Good question, start with the state in which the loan was originated.

    Just got off the phone with a mortgage banker and he said if a loan is originated while this credit item "chargeoff" is unpaid, then it would restart the clock on the statute of limitations. i.e. the claimants could sue to place a lien on the property they (the bank) lent on.

    Anyone ever heard of this?

    Thanks,
