Title insurance (TI) protects a home buyer against claims to the title of their home. A TI policy is generally a good idea, but a home buyer should understand their options when purchasing a policy. The easiest method is to purchase a policy offered through the buyers' attorney. The largest group offering policies in Connecticut is CATIC. See table below for rates.
| Sale Price | Fee | Percent |
| $ 100,000 | $ 440 | 0.44% |
| $ 200,000 | $ 825 | 0.41% |
| $ 300,000 | $ 1,155 | 0.39% |
| $ 400,000 | $ 1,485 | 0.37% |
| $ 500,000 | $ 1,815 | 0.36% |
| $ 600,000 | $ 2,090 | 0.35% |
| $ 800,000 | $ 2,640 | 0.33% |
| $ 1,000,000 | $ 3,190 | 0.32% |
These rates are approximate, but should give you a good idea of the cost of a policy. Also, you should know that your attorney gets paid 60% of the premium cost and remits the remaining 40% to the insurer.
