Which of the following is a requirement for a mortgage loan originator (MLO) license?
A.
Completed at least 10 hours of pre-licensing education
B.
Have not had an MLO license revoked in the last five years
C.
Have never been convicted of a felony in a domestic, foreign or military court
D.
Are covered by either a net worth or surety bond or pay into a state fund as required by the state loan originator's supervisory authority
The Answer Is:
D
This question includes an explanation.
Explanation:
One of the requirements for obtaining an MLO (Mortgage Loan Originator) license under the SAFE Act is that the MLO must be covered by a net worth requirement, surety bond, or must pay into a state fund. This requirement ensures that MLOs have adequate financial backing to protect consumers and the public in the event of legal or financial disputes.
A (10 hours of pre-licensing education) is incorrect because the requirement is at least 20 hours of pre-licensing education.
B (license revoked) and C (conviction) are not fully accurate as they do not align with the exact licensing rules under the SAFE Act.
