Can I refinance under Harp 2 with an upside down mortgage that has LPMI?
I live in Philadelphia, have good credit, always pay in full and on time, no debt aside from this mortgage, but currently have a mortgage managed by Chase that I owe more on than my house is worth and they have told me that due to the LPMI being part of the interest rate of the loan I don't qualify for even the new Harp 2 program. Are they right or do they just not want to deal with a situation that may be more time consuming? SO frustrated and would love some guidance! by Phillylady from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

HARP does not disallow LPMI... however some lenders wont do HARP refi's with LPMI.. there are lenders that will, but some wont.. so Just look for someone local.. start with the broker side... they have access to numerous lenders with a wide variance of programs.. .. I'm a Broker here in Scottsdale AZ and I only lend in Arizona. If you or someone you know is looking for financing options, feel free to contact me or pass along my information. 480-287-5714 WilliamAcres.com

A lot of the major banks won't work with LPMI, it's actually fairly simple to transfer it. Call a local broker in your area, they will have lenders that will work with LPMI. Good Luck.

Yes, you can. Sounds like you went back to your current sevicer and that is there guideline. It can be done so talk to a Lender411 loan officer but they will want to know what company you LPMI is paid to so find that out for when you make the call.

Some lenders are not doing HARP 2.0 with LPMI, particularly the large banks. We do the LPMI and also unlimited LTV. I have a blog post regarding this subject - please check that out. And yes, my group is licensed in PA.
