How Much Do Idaho Mortgage Broker Lender Bonds Cost?

Your bond amount will be determined by the Department of Finance based on the value of mortgage loans serviced in the previous calendar year. The premium price will be a small percentage of that total bond amount — typically 1-3%. For instance, a $1,000 Idaho mortgage broker bond starts at $100 for applicants with excellent credit.

How Do Idaho Mortgage Lender Bonds Work?

Idaho mortgage lender or broker surety bonds create a contract between three parties: 

  1. Principal: The mortgage broker/lender who purchases the bond
  2. Surety: The company that issues the bond to the principal
  3. Obligee: The Idaho Department of Finance that requires the bond

If the principal violates the bond terms and a consumer is harmed, the surety will pay for all damages up to the full bond amount. The principal is responsible for reimbursing the surety.

How Do I Renew My Bond? 

Idaho mortgage broker bonds remain continuous until canceled. All you need to do is pay a renewal invoice at the end of each term to maintain your bond coverage. To cancel a bond, the principal or surety must send 30-day’s written notice to the Department of Finance.
