Damifino? Several times I got notices from different places saying they now held my mortgage. It was a pain in the ass because they would invariably say the last guy wasn't collecting enough escrow.

But then the letters would start, do you know you live on a 100 year flood plain? Who wrote the flood insurance policy? Who wrote the homeowners policy? Why doesn't your mailing address match the deed address? Blah, blah, blah, every damn time. I was glad to be done with it.
