As you may be aware, prior to January 1, 2019, there was a special Texas title fee called a Guaranty Fee that was collected on Texas title policies. This fee was collected on each Texas title policy and was placed into a fund that would then be available to subsidize the audit function of the title regulator and to compensate parties for certain losses on title policies where the title provider was otherwise unable to pay.

Please let us know if you have any questions regarding this information.
