Ideal Accounts and Appetite
Mortgage Guard is tailored for institutions managing large or geographically diverse property portfolios where borrower lapses could create material exposure. Typical fits include:
- Residential mortgage portfolios (owner-occupied, tenant-occupied or vacant)
- Commercial real estate portfolios
- REO (Real Estate Owned) properties held by servicers or lenders
- Mobile home portfolios
Example: You might have a client who services a multi-state portfolio of residential investment properties. If a borrower lets their hazard policy lapse, Mortgage Guard provides immediate lender-placed protection—reducing gap exposure and protecting the lender’s interest until the borrower reinstates or replaces coverage.

Mortgage Guard offers broad, customizable hazard protection with features that make placement and servicing straightforward for agents and their institutional clients:
- All-risk Lender-Placed and REO Hazard Insurance, with wind coverage included where available
- Named-perils or all-risk options for commercial properties
- Optional coverages such as liability, lender-placed flood (via Bridge60), vacant theft, and others
- Claims handled at replacement cost (subject to program terms), with mobile homes typically settled at ACV
- Master policy structure—no individual property underwriting required for most placements

- Flexible billing, borrower notification workflows, and pro-rata refunds when policies are canceled
