Alternative Fees

*The alternative fees shown above for MB escrow is intended to give an Owner the option of having the fees paid by the Beneficiaries. For the Owner, this is a "no fee" approach to the escrow (except for the Excess Update Fess and Excess Storage Charges, if any). An escrow requires two or more Beneficiaries to be eligible for this alternative pricing.
