Ahh, you have a situation that many people find themselves in. Your mortgage company doesn't have to agree to it. So, what you can try is to get your state's Banking Department involved. File a complaint or inquiry and see what happens.

You may wish to also consult with a real estate attorney at www.attorneypages.com and check his or her record at the Minnesota State Bar.
