Title insurance agents are in the profession of selling insurance to homeowners which protects the homeowner from defects which may only later discovered in the title or deed to a purchased home.
The title insurance purchased is a one time fee only.
In Florida, title insurance agents are regulated by the Florida Division of Insurance Agents and Agency Services.
Florida title insurance agents are also required to purchase and maintain a $35,000 surety bond which names the appointed title insurance company as the obligee. Usually, it is the licensing Department which is the obligee for this type of surety bond; but, not in this case.
As a title insurance agent or agency, you may likely have more than one insurance company with whom you have an appointment to sell their title insurance.
The Florida title insurance agent bond is to protect those insurance companies from any failure on the part of you as an agent, or your agency, to act in accordance with laws regulating the title insurance profession.
The surety bond protects those insurance companies, but not you as an agent nor your agency, from any acts of fraud, theft, or criminal conduct committed by a title insurance agent or company.
The bond’s financial guarantee extends also to misconduct or unlawful activity committed by employees, agents, owners, or managers of a title insurance agency, as it relates to their duties which bear upon the appointing insurance company.
