There are two different Title Insurances. One covers the bank and one covers the homeowner. The bank insurance is mandatory. Homeowner's is optional. I'll be closing on July 22 and I'm thinking of rejecting it.

I just looked at my paperwork. The cost for lender's title insurance is $25.00. The cost for homeowner's title insurance is $1,005. Huh? Same coverage.
