I recently read an article re. title insurance which stated that claims paid out equal 4.3% of premiums! Auto claims are 68% of premiums and HMO Ins. pays out 86 cents of every premium dollar!!! Iowa has there state run program which costs buyers a flat $125 fee and then about $150 for a lawyer to search the title. I cannot remember with certainty where I read this but it may have been in a Seattle,Wash. newspaper article. Title insurance should be deregulated as the industry has been shown to be awash in kickbacks to R.E brokers,loan officers,builders and developers to the detrement of only one class of Americans,the underprotected home-buyer.
