Mortgage lender bonds are required by the various states where the mortgage broker/lender is operating. The license is to assure that the broker/lender will abide by the laws & regulations of that state and protect consumers. Every state has their own regulations in regards to this industry; therefore each state has its own bond form.
Loan originators and mortgage brokers may need this license bond in order to operate under their state license.
Bond approval is based on credit and the premium is a percent of the bond amount. With good credit the premium is 1-3%. Non-standard credit can start at 9.5% or higher.
