Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Prepare the reported loan volume

The bulletin bases the required sum on prior-year annual-report or Mortgage Call Report information. Use the Division's schedule and any direction to your company rather than treating the minimum as every lender's amount.

The bond is continuous, the principal name must match the lender, and principal and surety execution precede NMLS submission. A company also licensed as broker needs a separate broker bond.

Questions about this bond

Does the minimum apply to every lender?

No. Use the applicable volume-based schedule and Division instructions. This page does not offer fixed amounts to substitute for that calculation.

Does this also satisfy the broker requirement?

The bulletin requires separate lender and broker corporate bonds when the company holds both licenses.
