How Much Do Nevada Mortgage Broker Bonds Cost?
The cost of mortgage broker or mortgage company bonds in Nevada is based on the bond amount required by the Nevada Division of Mortgage Lending and the qualifications of the applicant.
Mortgage companies with an annual loan production of $20,000,000 or less need a $50,000 bond, while applicants whose annual loan production exceeds $20,000,000 need a $75,000 bond.
Nevada mortgage license bonds are subject to surety underwriting to determine exact pricing. With excellent credit, you may qualify for a rate as low as 1–3% of the total bond amount. If poor credit adversely affects your rate, ask about premium financing options to lower the upfront cost.

How Do Nevada Mortgage Broker Bonds Work?
If the principal violates the bond terms and a consumer is harmed as a result, the surety will pay for all damages up to the full bond amount. However, the principal is responsible for reimbursing the surety for any money it pays out to consumers.
These bonds remain active unless otherwise canceled by the surety or the principal. If either party decides to terminate the bond early, they must provide 60-days’ written notice to the Department of Financial Services.
