• Failure to Determine Flood Zone Liability: Covers the error or omission arising out of lender’s duty to determine whether or not a particular property is in a flood zone.
• Compliance Procedures: Covers failure to maintain private mortgage insurance, and compliance with requirements from FNMA, FHLMC or GNMA.
