Hello,
I own a second mortgage on a residential property.
Is it possible for me to get a current Mortgage Statement for the 1st mortgage ? I`ve been told I can request a "verification statement" of the 1st mortgage from the 1st mortgage holder. Do I need a lawyer to do this or can I request one myself ?
I tried talking to the bank`s branch and then to the mortgage department on the phone but they`ve told me that due to privacy laws, I am not entitled to any information about the 1st mortgage.
Thanks for any help.
