Texas title insurers told to slash rates again

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tom @ 3:47 pm
 

State regulators have again gone to the title companies and demanded a reduction in rates. 

You see… It seems that title companies(or rather their insurance companies) pay out such a low percentage of their premiums in claims that the govenment felt that they should step in and make a change…. again!!

I think these guys make more than casinos.

Anyway, they cut the premiums by 3.2% effective Feb. 1

And is a 17% reduction since 1998.

Typical homeowners policy on a $100,000 home in 1998 was $1023 compared to today’s $843
