Underwriter Dues Structure
2026 Changes: Shift to dues based on market share (Note: Tier selection should be based on 2024 Year-end final Industry Market Share data).
Underwriters who also operate as an agent, selling title insurance directly to consumers in Wisconsin, will be charged another, separate agent fee based on the total number of employees working in their Wisconsin direct offices. Dues will be charged using the same chart as agents (below). Underwriters with multiple direct brands will pay one fee based on the combined number of employees across all brands.
| Market Share | Dues |
| <2% | $3,500 |
| >2% - 10% | $4,500 |
| >10% - 25% | $6,000 |
| >25% - 50% | $7,500 |
| >50% | $9,000 |
Agent Dues Structure
2026 Changes: Leaves members under 50 employees unchanged, while adding more tiers for larger organizations with progressive increases in dues.
Agent dues will be billed based on the total number of full-time equivalent employees they have in the State of WI. The honor system will be employed.
Agents with common interests in multiple entities can either pay one fee based on the total number of employees working in all entities -OR- can choose to enroll its entities separately.
For example: Tina Title owns parent company ABC Title Group, LLC (20 employees) and also owns recently acquired XYZ Title, LLC (5 employees). Tina can either enroll just ABC Title Group, LLC as a WLTA Member (@ 25 total employees = $750.00) -OR- enroll each entity separately as WLTA Members (ABC Title Group, LLC @ 20 employees = $650.00 and XYZ Title, LLC @ 5 employees = $450.00). While the second option results in higher total dues, WLTA recognizes that some Agents may prefer to maintain distinct identities for their entities. We want to ensure Agents are aware of all available choices to best suit their needs.
