THIRD PARTY SERVICE FEES ARE NOT REGULATED BY THE STATE. THIRD PARTY SERVICE HOLDERS, LIKE ANY OTHER BUSINESS, WILL CHARGE FEES THAT ARE COMMENSURATE WITH THE COSTS OF PRODUCING THE SERVICE, THE LIABILITY UNDERTAKEN, AND THE OVERHEAD EXPENSES, WHICH INCLUDE A PROFIT FACTOR.
THEREFORE, THE FEES WILL VARY BETWEEN COMPANIES, AND FROM COUNTRY TO COUNTRY. NORMALLY, THE THIRD PARTY SERVICE HOLDER FOLLOWS ITS MINIMUM FEE SCHEDULE, WHICH WILL INCLUDE PROVIDING FOR EXTRA CHARGES BASED UPON THE DIFFERING ELEMENTS OF YOUR THIRD PARTY SERVICE. ON OCCASIONS, AN ADDITIONAL FEE MAY BE CHARGED FOR UNUSUAL EXPENDITURES OF TIME OR A GIVEN TRANSACTION.
THE THIRD PARTY SERVICE HOLDER HAS NO CONTROL OVER THE COSTS OF OTHER SERVICES THAT ARE OBTAINED, SUCH AS THE TITLE INSURANCE POLICY, TITLE SUB-THIRD PARTY SERVICE FEES, THE LENDER'S CHARGES, FIRE INSURANCE, RECORDING CHARGES, ETC. YOUR THIRD PARTY SERVICE OFFICER, UPON REQUEST, CAN PROVIDE YOU WITH AN ESTIMATE OF THE THIRD PARTY SERVICE FEES AND COSTS, AS WELL AS, FEES CHARGED BY OTHERS, PROVIDED SUCH INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE.
