The Delaware Mortgage Lender Bond ensures the licensee’s faithful compliance with Chapter 22, Title 5 of the Delaware Code. The bond also protects the State and guarantees compensation for clients who are injured by any wrongful act, omission, default, fraud or misrepresentation by the licensee. The term of the bond is either equal to the license period or continuous. If the term of the bond is continuous, the bond remains in full force and effect until cancelled. The bond may be cancelled by the Surety at any time with written notice to the Commissioner at least 30 days prior to the effective cancellation date.
