CLE Reporting 

As you know, VATC requires all agents and approved attorneys to complete a minimum of 6 hours of Real Estate Specific CLE during their two year VT Supreme Court reporting cycle. These credits may be obtained through VATC-sponsored seminars, the VBA, other underwriters, or any other accredited continuing legal education provider.

VATC Title Update Service
Notice of Fee Change -- Effective 9/1/18

We last implemented a change in the fee for our Title Update Service over 10 years ago.  Effective beginning 9/1/18, we are implementing a change to $30 per title update. Note: There is NO change in the fees for our popular mortgage discharge tracking service - the cost remains at $20 per Mortgage. 
Mortgage Policy (MP) vs. Owner Policy (OP) - Amount of Insurance

Per CATIC's filing with DFR, the amount of any OP  issued should equal or exceed the amount of the MP issued. I f there is ever a question on a specific  transaction, please contact our office to discuss.

Example: Purchase price is $225,250.00; Loan Amount is $229,500.00. Please
increase the amount of the insurance on the OP to equal $229,500.00.

CPL Fees: 
If you use the title update/discharge tracking service, please do not combine the CPL fee with the title update/discharge tracking fee.  However, VATC's portion of the title insurance premium and the CPL may be combined into one check.

Remittance:
Please issue and remit Short Form policies immediately after closing unless a simultaneous Owner's Policy is to be issued, in which case both policies should be remitted together within 60 days upon conducting a post-closing update.

When remitting policies to VATC, please be sure that the total amount enclosed on the CATIC Policy Transmittal Form matches the amount of the check you are sending to our office.
 
Career Network:
We often hear of firms who are hiring. While we welcome phone calls and emails, we thought we would add a post under News and Announcements (bottom right hand corner) of the VATC website. We will only post information if we have permission and we will not act as an intermediary.  If you would like to add a post, please email Katie  the information as you would like it o appear on our website.
