Public Trustee Fees

Public trustees are entitled to set fee amounts for performing the functions and exercising the powers conferred upon them by statute. The act doubles each fee, except for the fee for conducting a public foreclosure sale by means of the internet. The act also creates a new fee in the amount of $300 for performing actions related to processing a foreclosure sale if the holder of a certificate of purchase is not the holder of an evidence of debt. Additionally, the act requires the director of research of the legislative council to adjust the amount of each fee to which public trustees are entitled for inflation every other year if the adjustment will result in an increase.
