My mortgage has PMI on it, I paid the loan down to where I have 78% loan to value from the original agreement. My understanding is that this was to come off automatically at 78% but now they want a Brokers Price Opinion costing me $115 which I don't want to do just because of the cost. Is this required or are they just jerking me around?

Standard. Don't you pay more than that in MI? They aren't going to waive the requirement, so you seem to be cutting your nose to spite your face.

why is this standard? the LTV is <80%, what the hell does he need an opinion on that for? fwiw, my pmi is a measly $29/month, i'm gonna be pssed if my bank tries to charge me money to take it off when it is SUPPOSED to come off according to the original loan agreement
