What it is and who needs it.
What the abstracter bond actually covers
Kansas regulates abstracters under the Kansas Abstracters Act (K.S.A. 58-2801 et seq.), administered by the Abstracters’ Board of Examiners. An abstracter compiles the chain of title and lien history for real property, and the public relies on that work — so the state requires a bond before issuing a license.
The bond protects anyone who relies on an abstract. It answers for damages from an error, deficiency, or mistake in an abstract or continuation, and for damage to the county records the abstracter has access to. If a valid claim is paid, you repay the surety — it is not insurance for you.
The Board sets the penal sum at not less than $25,000, and a separate bond is filed for each county in which you operate. Enter the amount the Board requires for your county and we issue it at a flat 3% — a soft credit pull affects approval, never the price.
