Tile Company fees in PA

[Adolphus Fletcher]

Hello all, I am new to investing in Philly. From what I understand title companies are mandatory to settle in PA. I don't have a problem with this and I would like some recommendations if you have any! However, I also hear that they have varying fees across the board that can eat into the seller's take-home. Is it customary that they have their process displayed online or in a pricing guide so I can shop around?

The actual insurance premiums in PA are regulated by the state with some exceptions (most notably approved attorneys). Recording fees are going to be set by the city/municipality. All that's left is deed prep, notary fees and other misc. fees which fluctuate very minimally. I never hear of anyone going to certain title companies over others because of fees, its generally service based decision making.
