RE: RATES AND/OR FORMS UPDATE - FORMS UPDATE

Dear Associates:

The ALTA has added two new Policy Forms.

ALTA Expanded Coverage Residential Loan Policy - Current Assessments provides additional coverage to lenders for certain assessments imposed at Date of Policy.

The ALTA Short Form Expanded Coverage Residential Loan Policy - Current Assessments is the Short Form version of the ALTA Expanded Coverage Residential Loan Policy. It incorporates the issuing provisions, exclusions and conditions of the ALTA policy. It provides additional coverage to lenders for certain assessments imposed at Date of Policy.

These policies will be available to lenders of one-to-four family residential properties, and the charge is one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the Original Charge for Loan Policies.

NOTE: To compute any title insurance charge on a fraction of $1,000 (except as to minimum charges), consider any fraction of $1,000 as full $1,000.

Agents using AIM+ should contact Propertyinfo Customer Care, other agents should check with their provider to have these forms implemented in their system.
