Section 58-22-25 - Limit on fees for servicing loans or contracts of sale.

For servicing loans or contracts of sale, a licensee may charge fees based on the amount of the outstanding loan balance, provided that a licensee shall not charge, collect or receive in excess of one percent per year on the outstanding loan balance as that balance exists as of the date of the loan or sales contract or, for subsequent yearly periods, as that balance exists on the respective annual anniversary dates of the loan or sales contract. In the alternative, a licensee may charge, collect and receive fees based on the number and amount of disbursements made pursuant to the escrow instructions and may charge set-up, close-out and other fees, so long as any such fees are reasonable.
