Oregon Mortgage Broker Surety Bonds

Apply Now: Oregon Mortgage Broker Bond

Oregon mortgage brokers have been regulated by the state since January 1, 1994. In 2002 the restrictiveness of the regulation increased with the Mortgage Lenders Law which gave power to The Division of Finance and Corporate Securities, inside the Department of Consumer and Business Services, licensing power of mortgage brokers.

To qualify for licensure as a mortgage broker, applicants must have at least 3 years experience in the mortgage business, as well as a $25,000 bond. Loan Originators are also required to register with the Division of Finance and Corporate Securities. Loan originators must pass a course and examination, as well as completing 20 hours of continuing education during the licensure period.
