Case Name
Belanger v. RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation, Case No. 1:17-cv-23307- MGC
District Court for the Southern District of Florida
Case Summary
This lawsuit involves lender-placed insurance (“LPI”), which is insurance (hazard, flood, flood gap, or wind-only) that is placed on a borrower’s property to protect the borrower and mortgage lender when the borrower’s insurance policy lapses, or when the borrower does not maintain a homeowner’s insurance policy that is acceptable to the mortgage lender. When an LPI Policy is placed pursuant to the borrower’s mortgage contract, RoundPoint pays premiums to the LPI insurer that issues the policy, in this case, Great American, and then RoundPoint charges borrowers for those premiums.
