HB 2354 does not impose new taxes, fees, or direct regulations on title or escrow services, but <b><i>it alters property rights and obligations that must be acknowledged in conveyances</i></b>.” My comments: There is no related due diligence regarding the issues in this bill. The statute provides for disclosures but not necessarily in the deed. They can be made in the resale certificate or Form 17. Title companies do not have a due diligence to determine compliance.

There are no more provisions in this bill than in the existing statute. Also, a title policy does not insure compliance with disclosures, whether they are made (or not) in a seller’s resale certificate or Form 17.

Endorsements offered with title policies (such as the ALTA 4 and ALTA 5 series) concern compliance with creation of a CIC, and against loss due to violations of restrictions <b><i>that restrict the use of the land</i></b>, but the existence of improvements and the disclosure of the same to a purchaser are not affirmatively insured nor is loss against such a disclosure insured.
