One license issued to each broker — record required of locations where any business is conducted — supervision requirements — waiver of licensure, when — manufactured or modular home loans. — 1. Only one license shall be issued to each person conducting the activities of a residential mortgage loan broker. A residential mortgage loan broker shall register with the director each office, place of business or location in Missouri where the residential mortgage loan broker conducts any part of the residential mortgage loan broker's business pursuant to section 443.839.  2. Residential mortgage loan brokers may only solicit, broker, fund, originate, serve and purchase residential mortgage loans in conformance with sections 443.701 to 443.893 and such rules as may be promulgated by the director.  3. No residential mortgage loan broker shall permit an unlicensed individual to engage in the activities of a mortgage loan originator and no residential mortgage loan broker shall permit a mortgage loan originator to engage in the activities of a mortgage loan originator under the supervision of the residential mortgage loan broker until that mortgage loan originator is shown to be employed by the residential mortgage loan broker as provided in this section.  4. Each residential mortgage loan broker shall report and file a listing with the director showing each mortgage loan originator licensed in Missouri and employed under the supervision of the residential mortgage loan broker. The listing shall show the name and unique identifier of each mortgage loan originator. The listing shall be updated with changes and filed no later than the next business day. The director may authorize a system of reporting that shows mortgage loan originators employed by Missouri residential mortgage loan brokers via the NMLSR in substitution for the report and filing requirement under this subsection.  5. The director may grant waivers of residential mortgage loan broker licensing requirements for persons engaged primarily in servicing residential mortgage loans where such waiver shall benefit borrowers including in particular the requirement to maintain a full-service office in Missouri.  6. (1) The provisions of this subsection shall apply only to residential mortgage loan brokers exclusively making loans on manufactured or modular homes.  (2) A residential mortgage loan broker licensed in this state shall not be required to maintain a full-service office in Missouri; however, nothing in this subsection shall be construed as relieving a broker of the requirement to be licensed in this state and to obtain a certificate of authority to transact business in this state from the secretary of state.  (3) A residential mortgage loan broker licensed in this state who does not maintain a full-service office in Missouri shall file with the license application an irrevocable consent in a form to be determined by the director, duly acknowledged, which provides that, for suits and actions commenced against the broker in the courts of this state and, if necessary, for actions brought against the broker, the venue shall lie in the circuit court of Cole County.  (4) The director may assess the reasonable costs of any investigation incurred by the division that are outside the normal expense of any annual or special examination or any other costs incurred by the division as a result of a licensed residential mortgage loan broker who does not maintain a full-service office in Missouri. All costs assessed under this subsection shall be paid to the director of the department of commerce and insurance and shall be deposited into the credit of the division of finance. ­­-------- (L. 1994 S.B. 718 § 2 subsecs. 6, 7, A.L. 1995 H.B. 63, et al., A.L. 2001 S.B. 538, A.L. 2009 H.B. 382, A.L. 2017 H.B. 292)
