Underwritten title companies: escrow.

Abstract

Existing law authorizes an underwritten title company, as defined, to engage in the escrow business and act as an escrow agent as long as it fulfills specified requirements. Existing law requires an underwritten title company to obtain a license from the Insurance Commissioner by filing an application with the commissioner and paying a filing fee of $354. This bill would authorize the commissioner to license an underwritten title company to engage in escrow business in all counties of this state with one application. This bill would also require an underwritten title company seeking to expand its escrow business to pay a one-time fee of $449 or the reasonable regulatory cost, whichever is less.
