Rates
Rhode Island allows the issuance of separate CPLs to buyers, borrowers, and/or lenders depending on who is a party to the transaction, but only permits a single fee to be charged per transaction.
State Mandated Rates
There are no state mandated rates. The fee must be filed and approved by the commissioner of insurance pursuant to Rhode Island General Law 27-2.6-16.
WFG Rates
Although CPLs can be issued to buyer, borrower, and/or lender, the fee is $25 per transaction. Therefore a refinance or a purchase with a loan would allow the issuance of separate CPLs to a lender and the borrower or buyer, respectively, but the fee would be $25 in the aggregate and not a separate $25 for each CPL.
