West Virginia Mortgage Bond Requirements

What Does a West Virginia Mortgage License Bond Cover?

A West Virginia mortgage lender, mortgage broker, or regulated consumer lender bond is in favor of the State of West Virginia for the benefit of consumers, or for a claim by the commissioner for an unpaid civil administrative penalty or unpaid examination invoice. If a consumer restitution claim is pending when the commissioner makes a claim for a civil administrative penalty or unpaid examination invoice, the consumer claim must be resolved before payments are made for the penalty or invoice.

A West Virginia MLO bond coverage requirement protects consumers and supports compliance with the West Virginia SAFE Mortgage Licensing Act. Employer bond coverage may satisfy the MLO requirement when the MLO is an employee or exclusive agent of an eligible licensed or registered entity.

The bond is not insurance for the bonded mortgage lender, mortgage broker, regulated consumer lender, lender-servicer, MLO, or exempt company. If Jet pays a valid claim, the bonded principal is responsible for reimbursing Jet for the amount paid and related costs under the indemnity agreement.
