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.

Explain when you receive borrower funds

Section 6 identifies $25,000 for a broker receiving funds from a prospective borrower before closing or acting as a lender. Do not assume the same requirement applies to every broker regardless of activity.

DIFS requires electronic bonds for second-mortgage registrations. Once the surety prepares the ESB, your company handles its signature and Mark Ready tasks in NMLS.

Sources

Have these ready

  1. Registered business name and NMLS identifier.
  2. Your DIFS request and registration category.
  3. Description of pre-closing receipts and any lending activity.

Questions about this bond

Is this the broker license offering?

It is labeled registrant. Match your DIFS status; the separate second-mortgage broker offering should not be substituted solely because its name is similar.

Do I need an issued bond to start?

No. Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab to begin the application. Issuance comes later, followed by required execution and delivery.

Does registration license an individual originator?

DIFS treats individual MLO licensing separately, subject to statutory exemptions. A company bond purchase does not authorize an employee to originate loans.
