Mississippi Mortgage Broker Bond and Mortgage Lender Bond

Mississippi Mortgage Broker Bond and Mortgage Lender Bond

The Department of Banking and Consumer Finance manages the licensing of mortgage brokers and lenders within the State of California. To qualify for and maintain a mortgage license, the Department requires a surety bond—either a $25,000 Mortgage Broker Bond or a $150,000 Mortgage Lender Bond. 

QUOTE

Jet Insurance Company provides both the Mortgage Broker and Lender Bonds to act as financial assurances to the Department that the mortgage professional will abide by the stipulations of their license. Should a violation be committed (e.g. negligence, misrepresentation, fraud, or a breach of contract), funds from the bond may be used as a means of restitution.

Mississippi Mortgage Broker Bond and Mortgage Lender Bond Details

The Mississippi Department of Banking and Consumer Finance utilizes the Nationwide Multistate Licensing System and Registry (NMLS) for the administration of mortgage broker and lender licenses, as well as the filing of surety bonds. So once you purchase the appropriate Mortgage License Bond with Jet, it must be filed with the NMLS. 

Jet can handle filing your bond for you! We just need you to grant us permission to act as your designated surety company with the NMLS (Jet Insurance Company NAIC #16379). If you are unsure how to do this, the NMLS breaks it down within the Electronic Surety Bond for Licensees webpage.

In Mississippi, mortgage broker and lender licenses expire on December 31st of each year. To ensure you experience a seamless license renewal with the Department, select the renewal button at the bottom of the page for more information.
