In the event that the aggregate standard loan policy coverage exceeds the amount of the owner's policy, then an additional premium, calculated in the appropriate bracket of the basic title insurance rate for standard loan policies on the amount of the additional loan policy coverage, must also be charged. |
Extra-hazardous Risks

| Mechanic's Lien Coverage |
| Extra-hazardous premium charges may be applicable on policies insuring construction loan lenders or outsale purchasers and their lenders for filed and unfiled mechanic’s and materialman’s liens. Issuance of mechanic’s lien coverage is outside the authority of the agent pursuant to the agency contract. Contact Company Counsel for approval for the issuance of these types of policies and for a premium quotation. |
| “One-Year Decedent” Estates |
| Pursuant to underwriting guidelines, a one-time extra-hazardous
premium charge may be applicable on loan and owner’s policies issued
in connection with transactions in which an owner in the chain of title
has died within the year prior to closing. When applicable, the premium is
calculated at the rate of $2.00/$1,000.00 (based on net proceeds) with a minimum
of $250.00 payable direct to the Company. |
