For the title agent bond, there is also a credit check. Our agency utilizes a “soft inquiry”. This means that the inquiry we use does not reflect on your credit report, thus lowering your score.
As an applicant for the title insurance agent bond, a well qualified applicant may pay as little as ½ of 1% or 1% annually; however, the amount that you pay will largely be a reflection of your application and credit score.
Applicants with poorer credit scores will pay correspondingly higher amounts for this bond.
Typically, payments plans are not offered for this bond; they must be paid in full before issuance.
The Maryland title insurance agency bond is active for one year from the date of issuance. For some applicants, we may be able to offer for prepayment for 2 or 3 years, thereby offering a savings over year to renewal of the surety bond.
The choice for prepayment, if offered, however, is entirely yours to make.
