What Other Insurance Products Can Agents Offer Title Agents/Agencies?

Most states do not require title agents/agencies to purchase any form of liability insurance as a prerequisite to obtaining a license (excluding a select few). However, reputable title agents and title agencies will purchase liability insurance anyway. Bonds are our only business at BondExchange, so we do not issue any other forms of insurance, but our agents often utilize brokers on these lines. A list of brokers can be found here.
