Nevada Covered Service Providers Surety Bond

Nevada Covered Service Providers Bond

The Nevada Covered Service Providers Bond is a licensing requirement for foreclosure or loan modification consultants applying for a covered service providers license with the Nevada Division of Mortgage Lending. Better known as the MLD, the Division of Mortgage Lending requires covered service providers to file a $75,000 or $100,000 surety bond to protect the constituents of Nevada from violations of Nevada mortgage related license law (NRS Chapter 645F).

What Is the Purpose of the Nevada Covered Service Providers Bond?

The Nevada Division of Mortgage Lending (MLD) regulates foreclosure and loan modification consultants in accordance with Nevada license law defined in NRS Chapter 645F. The Nevada Covered Service Providers bond gives the Commissioner of the MLD a financial tool to pursue any violations of the law. When a covered service provider runs afoul of the regulations, the surety bond may be used to compensate the public. However, licensees should be aware that any claims against a surety bond must be repaid by the covered service provider as required by law.

How To File Your Bond with the Nevada Division of Mortgage Lending

The Nevada MLD requires that the original surety bond be filed by mail to the Carson City address. Below is the process for receiving and filing your bond:

  1. Purchase bond
  2. Bond copy available for download immediately, Jet also emails a copy to you
  3. Original bond mailed to you (free of charge). Original bond includes Jet’s corporate seal imprint.
  4. You sign and date the original bond as the “Principal Signee”
  5. You mail the original bond to the Nevada MLD at the following address:

State of Nevada Division of Mortgage Lending
1830 College Parkway, Ste 100
Carson City, NV 89706

One of these days, Jet’s hoping to convince the Nevada MLD to accept electronic documents. Until that day, we’ll work with you to make sure your bond gets filed appropriately, no matter how inconvenient the old pony express makes the process.

Can I Cancel My Nevada Covered Service Provider Bond and Get a Refund?

Yes, Jet makes cancelling your bond easy. Just let us know with a call, email or chat, and we will get your bond cancelled and refund you any unused portion of your premium payment. If you pay monthly, we’ll just stop the payments. 

The Nevada Division of Mortgage Lending does require us to mail a cancellation notice to them providing at least 60 days notice. As soon as you request cancellation, we’ll get the notice out and calculate your refund.

Jet’s cancellation process may just seem like good sound business practices, but many of our “competitors” take a different approach by creating hassles, charging fees, and even refusing to refund your money.

How to Renew the Nevada Covered Service Providers Bond

Jet makes renewing the Nevada Covered Service Providers Bond easy. If you subscribe to our monthly option, there is no such thing as a renewal! Your bond stays active indefinitely as long as you make your automatic monthly payment and nothing materially changes in your credit report.

For Jet customers that pay up front, we will email and mail you renewal notices when your bond is coming due. Simply pay the renewal premium and your bond stays active.

How Do Nevada Covered Service Providers Avoid Bond Claims?

To avoid bond claims on your Nevada Covered Service Provider bond, it is important to understand the purpose of the bond. The bond provides financial compensation to the state and Nevada constituents if foreclosure or loan modification consultants break the licensing law (NRS Chapter 645F). Licensing law is intended to protect consumers from unethical practices, so in general, claims should easily be avoided if consultants follow the rules. The most common violations that can create claims include the following:

The Commissioner may make a ruling regarding violations of license law and/or customer complaints and charge up to a $25,000 administrative penalty after providing notice or conducting a hearing with the licensee.

What Happens if I Get a Nevada Covered Service Provider Bond Claim?

Jet’s team will do everything in our power to defend you against claims. Our defense will depend on who submits the claim, and if the claim is covered by the bond.

For claims submitted by the Commissioner of the MLD, or from a court of law, Jet has no option but to pay the claim within 30 days. Jet will reach out to you and advise you to attempt to resolve any issues before we make payment, which will save your business money. If a customer submits a claim directly to Jet, we will investigate the claim thoroughly and request your cooperation so we can mount a proper defense. 

If the claim is valid and we have exhausted all reasonable defenses, we will pay the claim amount up to the bond amount. Unfortunately, your business will still be responsible for paying back Jet for these claim payments. However, if you work with us and pay us back, we will restore your bond and get you back in business.

Are There Other Bonds That a Nevada Covered Service Provider Needs?

Not specifically, but Nevada has some other license types related to debt management that might overlap with covered service providers.
