Assistant Co 1.my Attor' ey EriiIN Pep v Print Name Page 8of16 EXHIBIT A SPECIFICATIONS Preparation and Delivery of Title Commitments,issuance of Title Policies,and Real Estate Closing Services A.Background Information Unlike the manner in which title commitments are normally ordered, Collier County (County) usually does not find the property it needs already listed for sale by its current owner. For each major land rights acquisition project (utility mains, roadway expansions, etc.), the County must contact the record title holders of the property and inform them as to how much of their property is sought for the construction of the contemplated improvements. Step One in the County's acquisition process is the preparation of legal descriptions of parcels of land or easements that the engineers and surveyors have determined are necessary in order to construct the proposed improvements. Once these legal descriptions are received by the acquisition department, copies are supplied to the real estate appraiser(s) and title company(s) selected for the project. For this reason,the dollar value of the property is not yet known at the time the commitment order is placed. Proposed policy values, therefore, are usually"TBD" (To Be Determined). In addition, the County rarely purchases entire subdivided lots in platted subdivisions. The greatest volume of work will be in support of roadway expansion projects, where strips of land from the frontage of properties must be acquired to expand the right-of-way corridor. Also, because the County rarely finds just these "strip takings" already listed for sale, our purchase negotiations take far longer than the average real estate transaction. It can often be ten (10) or twelve (12) months, or longer, between the time that the County first places an order for a title commitment, and the time that the County closes on the purchase of the property and orders a title policy. Because the County must order its title commitments in advance of reaching an agreement in order to ensure the County is, in fact, negotiating with the persons and/or companies with the lawful authority to sell,the County does not know at that time whether or not the County will be able to close the transaction. When the asking price of the property simply cannot be justified in the public interest, the County may change the design and consider locating its improvements elsewhere or the County may condemn the property. Condemnation also becomes inevitable if the project schedule does not allow enough time to resolve a complex title problem, such as the need for an estate to go through probate before the land can be disposed of through a typical real estate closing. If the property is condemned,a title policy will not be ordered. Even when the County is able to close the transaction, the County is under no obligation to order a policy and,more often than not,will not do so. Page 9 of 16 While the County occasionally requires a title commitment on a single property, more than likely, the County will be involved in a major public works project which affects many properties at the same time. For this reason, title commitments are often ordered in numbers (sometimes as many as twenty (20) to forty (40) at once). This is why the specifications for Preparation and Delivery of Title Commitments address the staggered delivery of title commitments where large numbers are ordered at once. (See paragraph 12 below.) This Agreement includes the actual preparation of the legal instruments necessary to comply with the Schedule B-1 "Requirements" portion of the title commitment,and for those services required to obtain the proper execution of all necessary instruments including, but not limited to,conveyance instruments,releases, subordination, affidavits,requests for estoppel, special assessments, tax prorations, and the preparation of closing statements required to close the real estate transaction and issue the title policy. The actual offer letters and official notices will be sent to the property owners by County staff; all negotiations will be conducted by County staff; and all purchase agreements or easement agreements will be drafted by County staff. Upon the bilateral execution of a purchase agreement or easement agreement by the owner and County,the file may be turned over to the title company to close the transaction. B. Title Commitment Preparation 1. Unless a prior title insurance policy is obtained, title Commitments must be based on no less than a 30-year search and are to be prepared as follows: a) Schedule "A" must identify the specific interest in real property to be acquired by the County, the current record title holder of the fee simple interest in said real property, and the exact manner in which said title is currently held; b) Schedule "B-1" must list only those requirements necessary to guarantee insurability in the event a title policy is to be purchased. Requirements should be listed in reverse chronological order,beginning with the particular instrument which must be executed by the current title holder in order to vest that particular real property interest with the County;and c) Schedule "B-2" must list only those easements and other exceptions to which any title policy would be subject (see Paragraph 3). These must be listed in reverse chronological order. 2. In addition to the title commitments issued pending a fee simple acquisition, Company shall provide title commitments for easement acquisition, and shall NOT, in such cases, require the execution of a warranty deed,but shall instead itemize as a requirement the recording of an easement for the purpose(s) specified in the County's purchase order. 3. The County may request Company to issue a title commitment for the entire parent tract, or for only a portion of the parent tract. In the case of the latter,Schedule B-II shall list only those exceptions applicable to the subject parcel (and shall not include those exceptions applicable to the remainder of the parent tract). County will provide Company with a legal description of the subject parcel simultaneously with the Page 10 of 16 Purchase Order. If the search reveals that the subject parcel is under multiple ownership (excluding undivided share ownership), Company shall immediately notify County and suspend all further work on the subject parcel to allow County to determine whether it is necessary to split the legal description into two or more parcels. 4. All title commitments issued by Company to County must contain verification that Company has checked the names of all "relevant parties to the transaction" (defined in this case as sellers, buyers and any non-traditional lenders) against the "Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons" (SDN) list published by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). If Company's search discloses a "match," the commitment must include, in Schedule B-1, a statement that a match against the SDN list was found. 5. All title commitments must contain the Project Number and Project Parcel Number provided to Company by County. 6. At the request of County, Company shall issue an endorsement or update of a title commitment; and upon County's compliance with the requirements as set forth in Schedule "B-1" and payment of the risk premium at the contract rate, Company shall issue County a title policy for levels of coverage equivalent to the values of the interest in real property sought by County. 7. Reissue credit will be given toward the cost of County's title policy whenever possible. Therefore,Company shall make every reasonable effort to ascertain whether a previous policy exists and secure a copy of any prior policies for which reissue credit can be given. 8. "Owner's, Amount" (property value) shall state, "TO BE DETERMINED" upon the initial issuance of the title commitment. Unlike typical real estate purchasers, the County often seeks title information long before the valuation of the interest to be acquired is complete. 9. In addition to the terms and conditions governing invoicing contained in Paragraph 3 of the Annual Agreement for Title Commitments, all invoices, bills and/or statements must specify the exact service performed, i.e., issuance of title commitment, issuance of title policy, etc. All invoices submitted for payment must be originals (unless submitted via email) on Company letterhead; must list Company as "payee"; and must reference the PO number, Project Number and Project Parcel number provided to Company by County. Invoices from entities other than the Company under annual contract with the County will not be paid. 10. County shall pay no penalty, fee or other charge for failure to order a title policy or utilize the closing services of Vendor. In such instances,payments made by the County for title commitments and updated search reports shall be payment in full for title services rendered by Vendor related to the subject real estate. Note that County's Page 11 of 16 current practice is to conduct closings in-house and to order policies only in exceptional circumstances. 11. Title commitments and updated search reports shall include as attachments legible copies of all state and federal tax liens, ad valorem tax deficiencies, mechanic's and materialmen s liens, mortgages and financing statements, judgments, lis pendens, contracts for deed, recorded leases, easements and any and all covenants and restrictions of record affecting the real property sought by the County. (Copies of encumbrances that affect the parent tract but which do not affect the subject parcels being acquired by County are not to be included.) Where the portion of property sought by the County is part of the common elements or property of any condominium, homeowner's association, property owner's association or civic association, Company shall include with the title commitment a copy of all recorded instruments pertinent to said association, including but not limited to, declarations or protective covenants and restrictions, articles of incorporation, and corporate by-laws. Recognizing that these documents can be quite voluminous, Company shall contact County if there is doubt as to whether said copies are necessary. IMPORTANT: There shall be NO limitation on the reporting of encumbrances. Reporting encumbrances created back only as far as the date of the last institutional mortgage encumbering the property does NOT serve the interests of Collier County. Collier County has a need to examine ALL easements and reservations which might limit the right of the County to use the property, or which might place the County in an inferior position relative to possible facilities conflicts, regardless of when the encumbrance was first created. The typical purchaser of real estate will take title subject to existing easements. Not so with Collier County. Copies of instruments should be attached to the title commitment in the same reverse chronological order as listed in Schedules "B-1" and "B-2". After the copy of the instrument that evidences the current record title holder, there should be attached in reverse chronological 'order copies of all those instruments listed in Schedule "B-1", followed by all of those instruments listed in Schedule "8-2" in reverse chronological order. 12. Delivery of the title commitments shall be in accordance with the schedule below, where "delivery schedule" constitutes the total number of business days lapsing between issuance of Purchase Order by County and delivery by company of completed title commitments. Number of Title Commitments or Ownership Delivery Schedule** &Encumbrance Reports Ordered 1 to 3 10 Business Days 4 to 6 15 Business Days 7 to 12 20 Business Days 13 to 25 25 Business Days Page 12 of 16 26 to 35 30 Business Days Over 35 To be negotiated Update 10 Business Days Revision of legal description(s) 5 Business Days Miscellaneous Real Estate and Title Research Services To be negotiated 13. Company shall NOT require a certified survey as a pre-condition to issuance of a title policy. 14. Certificates of Good Standing from the office of the Secretary of State shall NOT be listed as a B-I requirement. County shall provide a copy of the Corporate Detail Record showing current corporate status, along with the Directors/Officers of the corporation from the Florida Department of State,Division of Corporations web site. 15. The recording of corporate resolutions in the public records shall NOT be listed as a B-I requirement. 16. Schedule B-1, Requirements, may call for an Amended Notice of Commencement OR a Partial Termination, but shall not require total termination of the Notice of Commencement unless all intended improvements have been completed. 17. Company shall provide the Property Appraiser's folio number for the parent tract from which County seeks an interest in real property. Where County furnishes a folio number or ownership information, this is always subject to verification by Company. Ad Valorem taxes, both current and delinquent, if any, shall be itemized in the title commitment. 18. Initial orders for title commitments shall be in writing either on County letterhead, fax transmittal form or email, and must include the name of the County employee placing the order. Updates and endorsements may be ordered by phone. 19. Company will immediately notify County of any determinations made by its underwriter that newly enacted Florida Statutes, Florida Department of Financial Services ("DFS") guidelines or federally mandated restrictions affect Company's ability to comply with the terms of this contract proposal. C.Real Estate Closing Services Company will be provided electronic copies in Microsoft WORD format of the County's format instruments which have been approved by the Office of the County Attorney. Upon reaching an agreement with the Property Owner, and obtaining the execution of same by the Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners, the parcel file may be turned over to the Title Company for the preparation of legal instruments and the assemblage of all releases, subordination, estoppels, prorations and other required documents. The Right-of- Page 13 of 16 Way Acquisition office will forward an email to Company with an attached "Request for Closing Services" and fully executed copy of the Agreement, together with any "specific" instructions that may be required. Company will work with the property owners to set a timely closing date. Company must email the closing statement to the Acquisition Specialist for review and approval. Within four (4) weeks following County's approval of the Closing Statement, County will provide Company all funds required to Close. When conducting real estate closing services for the County, Company shall ascertain the status of any existing title policies and attempt to secure a copy of said policy for purposes of reissue credit against the cost of any owner's title policy to be issued to County. (The percentage of available reissue credit given for "partial acquisitions" will directly correspond with percentages of the insured property being conveyed to County). Company shall record the appropriate documents in the public records and notify the Acquisition Specialist that the closing has occurred. Copies of all executed closing documents, including any B-I requirements,will be provided to County. In order to comply with both the purchasing policy of County and requirements of most title underwriters, Company will email to .County a "pdf" copy of the original title policy simultaneously with submission of the original invoice for services. Company will then deliver the original executed title policy immediately upon receipt of payment from County. (As an alternative, Company can deliver the original title policy simultaneously with submission of the original invoice for services.) D.Ownership and Encumbrance Report The following is a description of the service/product the County requires: 1. A report entitled "Ownership and Encumbrance Report" in the form of a cover letter identifying: (1) the record title holder to the subject property, as well as (2) all claims, liens, and other interests in real property attaching to and encumbering the subject property (mortgages,easements,judgments,mechanic liens,tax certificates,etc.). IMPORTANT: There shall be NO limitation on the reporting of encumbrances. Reporting encumbrances created back only as far as the date of the last institutional mortgage encumbering the property does NOT serve the interests of Collier County. Collier County has a need to examine ALL easements and reservations which might limit the right of the County to use the property, or which might place the County in an inferior position relative to possible facilities conflicts, regardless of when the encumbrance was first created. The typical purchaser of real estate will take title subject to existing easements. Not so with Collier County. Page 14 of 16 2. A legible copy of each instrument referenced in the report(including the owner's deed) MUST be attached to each report. Copies of County Resolutions and Ordinances (which would normally be listed as exceptions to the issuance of a title policy) need not be provided. However, copies of Declarations of Covenants and Restrictions, and the By- Laws and the Articles of Incorporation for Condominium and Homeowner Associations, MUST be attached to each Ownership and Encumbrance report on condominium and HOA common element properties. The Property Appraiser's Folio Number and Collier County's project and project parcel numbers MUST also be provided for each parcel. NOTE: Providing an abstract of title does NOT fulfill or substitute for the requirements outlined above for Ownership and Encumbrance Reports. E.Miscellaneous Real Estate and Title Research Services From time to time, Collier County has a need for miscellaneous real estate and title research services,such as: • A need to review just the deeds ONLY for each property in of a group of properties. • A need to review all of the deeds and or mortgages having been recorded within a particular time frame,within a defined geographic boundary. • Locating and producing a copy of a deed or easement in favor of Collier County which might document the existence of a public right-of-way and which is missing from the County's inventory.
