SHe had a mortgage on the home, which I have not refinanced. I pay the mortgage and taxes and live in the home. A check from the mortage co came the other day m ade payable to the estate of ..... I was told I cannot reapply it to the mortgage or cash it or return it to go toward the payment. There is no estate. I own the home. I pay all the bills. My credit is less than adequate which is why I have not refinanced and assumed the mortgage.
What can i do? I need that money. I am entitled to the money. I am putting it right back on the house. No one is able to tell me how to work thru this issue.
I appreciate your speed in this matter and your help.
