Washington Post has an article on the high cost of title insurance and notes that claims paid only amount to 3% to 5% of premiums collected. A product with a skim rate of 95% to 97% is the very definition of fraud.
Obamacare is a fraud, and even they require for-profit insurers to spend a minimum of 80% of premiums collected on actual medical care.
Note: If you read the comments to the article, one guy says his wife works in Title Insurance and said they pay a commission of 75% of the premium collected to the real estate attorney that sells the policy to his client. Maybe a lot of the fraud is in your attorney’s office.{ { LOL }}
