Minnesota Mortgage License Bonds

To qualify for a residential mortgage originator, residential mortgage servicer, or accelerated mortgage payment provider license within the State of Minnesota, either a Residential Mortgage Originator Bond, Residential Mortgage Servicer Bond, or Accelerated Mortgage Payment Provider Bond is required by the Department of Commerce. 

The surety bonds listed above provide financial protection to the public. This means that if the licensee violates state mortgage regulations (e.g. commits negligence, misrepresentation, a breach of contract, and/or fraud), funds from the appropriate license bond may act as a means of restitution for the damaged claimant.

Minnesota Mortgage License Bond Rates

Jet has partnered with Lexington National Insurance Corporation to compare bond rates and find the best price for you. The cost of each Minnesota Mortgage License Bond is a small percentage of the state-required bond limit and is based on a soft credit check of the bond applicant.

View the charts below for details on the preferred tier rates and various bond terms available. 

You’ll notice that the limit for the Residential Mortgage Originator Bond is determined by the company’s prior year’s loan origination volume. Whereas both the Residential Mortgage Servicer Bond and Accelerated Mortgage Payment Provider Bond require a standard $100,000 limit.

The Minnesota Department of Commerce utilizes the Nationwide Multistate Licensing System and Registry (NMLS) for the administration of mortgage licenses, as well as the filing of surety bonds. So once you purchase one of the available Mortgage License Bonds, it must be filed with the NMLS.
