How Does a Missouri Residential Mortgage Broker Bond Work? 

A Missouri residential mortgage broker bond binds three parties in a legal contract:  

  • Principal: The residential mortgage broker purchasing the bond
  • Surety: The provider issuing the bond to the principal 
  • Obligee: The Missouri Division of Finance (DOF) requiring the bond

The obligee or broker clients can file a claim to recover damages if the contract terms are broken. The surety company will pay claims to harmed parties up to the full bond amount, which you would need to reimburse.
