Apply for Your Surety Bond by Phone

by Surety Admin 13. March 2012 03:00

The Surety Group has agents who can take your bond application by phone now at 800-486-8211. In most cases, your application will be approved the same day and in many cases, instantly. We have rates for several of our auto dealer bond programs and all of our mortgage broker bonds online. This is a big time saver--no waiting for a quote and someone to fill out your application for you. You can truly be done in minutes.

Many surety agencies require two applications, one filled out for the agency followed by one for the underwriter. And surety agencies that promise instant quotes or quotes in minutes are usually giving you a ballpark figure to encourage you to fill out an application. To get an actual quote, you can wait hours or even days. After we take your information, we fax you your application for signature. That's it. If we can't approve your application instantly, we will have an answer in a day.

Call 800-486-8211, and speak directly to a surety agent. Let's get started!

How to Apply for a Mortgage Broker Bond

by Surety Admin 21. November 2011 04:01

The first step in applying for a mortgage broker bond is understanding the licensing requirements of the state in which you will operate.

  • Most states require yearly continuing education and charge a licensing fee.
  • Some states require a mortgage broker bond to be posted in order for a broker to qualify for a license.
  • The surety posting the bond must be licensed in that specific state.

You may get a better rate working with a surety agent versus an insurance agent because they specialize in underwriting surety bonds. If you have bad credit, finding a surety agency that works with a large group of sureties may help you get approved. If you need a bond quickly, find a surety agency that has in-house authority. This means that they can approve your bond without sending it to a surety to review and approve. The Surety Group has in-house underwriting authority and works with dozens of sureties.

Alaska Mortgage Broker Bond Changes

by Surety Admin 3. September 2010 14:47
Alaska SB 279 revises the existing license bond requirements for mortgage brokers and mortgage lenders to comply with new federal standards for mortgage loan originators. Prior law required a $25,000 surety bond. The new law requires a bond in an amount as determined through regulations. Further, the new law adds a three-year tail to the bond in the statute. Under prior law, the bond only had to remain in place until the mortgage lender or broker’s license is revoked or terminated. The bond would have to be in place for three years after the revocation or termination of the license. Of note, the bill provides for a transition so that the required bond amount will remain $25,000 until the regulations for the bond prescribed in the new law take effect.
