How Much Does a New Mexico Mortgage Loan Company Bond Cost?
The cost of a New Mexico mortgage loan company bond is between $500 and $15,000. The state requires a bond amount between $50,000 and $150,000, based on annual loan originations. Instead of covering the full amount of the bond directly, your bond is available through a surety company at a premium.
With more than a decade of experience serving New Mexico’s bond needs, we are the authorized surety company that you can rely on. Bond premium rates are between 1% and 10%.
Your rate is determined by factors like your credit rating, liquid and fixed assets, and professional credentials. Most credit scores qualify through our bond programs.
A credit score of at least 700 qualifies for a 1% to 3% premium. A 600 to 699 score qualifies for a 3% to 5% premium. A premium of 5% to 10% is offered to applicants with a 599 score or lower.

Mortgage Loan Company Bond Requirements in New Mexico
The New Mexico Regulation and Licensing Department is the governing authority responsible for mortgage loan company and loan originator licenses. The bond requirements are established under Section 58-21-7 NMSA, 1978. License applications are processed by the Nationwide Multistate Licensing System.
Both mortgage loan companies and originators have the same bond amount requirements. However, the originator’s requirement is met by the loan company’s bond. The required amount of the bond is between $50,000 and $150,000 and is based on annual loan originations.
The obligee for the surety bond is the State of New Mexico. This is a continuous bond that remains in full force until it is canceled. To cancel the bond, the surety must provide the principal and obligee with a 30-day written notice. The loan company is responsible for replacing the bond.
