ORIGINAL ISSUE RATE

The Original Issue Rate shown above applies if none of the other “discounted” rates apply to a given transaction.

The underwriter share of the premium is as set forth in the Agency Agreement, but the Florida Rate rules set a sliding scale ranging from 30% to 40% which the underwriter must receive from the Original Issue Rate. The Sliding Scale does not apply to endorsements or any of the “discounted” rates. For those, the underwriter share is a minimum of 30%.

REISSUE RATE

1. Previous owner’s policy insuring current seller or mortgagor. Must have policy in file and should send copy to underwriter with new policy
2. AND ANY OF:
a. Unimproved land except for roads, bridges, drainage & Utilities – regardless of age; or
b. Policy <3 years; or
c. Any refi by insured owner without regard to age.
3. Rates in Table Above
4. Underwriter split is as agreed in agency agreement, with a minimum of 30% per Florida Statutes. Sliding scale does not apply

SUBSTITUTION LOAN RATE

SAME borrower & SAME Lender (ANY Lender if Balance >$250k) make loan on the SAME property as previously insured:

Age of Original Loan Premium Rates
3 years or under 30% of original rates
From 3 to 4 years 40% of original rates
From 4 to 5 years 50% of original rates
From 5 to 10 years 60% of original rates
Over 10 years 100% of original rates
Minimum premium $100.00

New loan does not need to be insured by the same insurer or same agent as the prior loan. Just that the prior loan was insured. There is no requirement in the Rule that the title agent receive a copy of the prior policy. Other indications of insurance are acceptable.

The discounted rates above apply up to the outstanding balance of the old loan being paid off. Regular Rates on all above the unpaid principal balance of existing loan

SPECIAL RULE FOR MORTGAGE MODIFICATIONS

Substitution Loan Rate is REQUIRED for any insured Mortgage Modification which makes any changes OTHER THAN:
1. Extension of repayment time;
2. Decrease in interest rate, provided “cap” on variable rate ≤ original “cap” and/or original fixed rate;
3. An increase in interest rate IF endorsement contains exception for loss of priority from the increase;
4. Changes in amortization schedule to extend the term of the insured mortgage;
5. A partial release;
6. A correction to perfect the lien or comply with original loan commitment;
7. Future advances made per §697.04; or

3. one to four family improvement
4. after C.O. Granted.

Policy discounted by pro-rata amount of premium paid for prior LOAN policies. $200 Min
May not be combined with any other discounted rates – only against full original rate.

Since many builders obtain or increase their owners policy at the time of a construction loan, the applicable discount will be measured against the simultaneous issue paid for the loan policy. Where the owners policy has been increased to reflect the construction loan, reissue rates will often be applicable.

SIMULTANEOUS ISSUE RATE

BOTH Owner’s and Mortgagee’s policy covering IDENTICAL land to be issued simultaneously: Premium = Regular Owners Premium + MINIMUM of $25.00 for Loan Policy ≤ Amount of Owners. If Mortgagee>Owners, excess at normal rates.

Both Policies Must Have Same Date of issuance – But may insure a later mortgage (mortgage after purchase with Underwriting approval). Owners Policy must show Mortgage as Exception

NOTE: IT IS THE LOAN POLICY THAT QUALIFIES FOR THE SIMULTANEOUS ISSUE – NOT THE OWNERS POLICY

SIMULTANEOUS LEASEHOLD POLICY

BOTH Owner’s and Leasehold policy covering IDENTICAL land to be issued simultaneously
Premium = Regular Owner’s Premium; Lease Premium = 30% of Owners Normal Rate up to Amount of Owners Policy. If Leasehold>Owners, excess at normal rates.

CONTRACT PURCHASER – LESSEE

If (a) Insured Contract Purchaser or (b) Insured Lessee acquires property and wants owners policy, AND SURRENDERS policy on Contract/Lease, Re-Issue Rate is:

Up to $100,000 of liability written 25% of Original Issue Premium
Over $100,000 add 20% of Original Issue Premium
