AI Summary

This bill aims to hold lenders responsible for failing to pay insurance premiums from escrowed accounts, even if there are sufficient funds available. If a lender neglects to pay the premium and the property owner suffers a loss as a result, the lender will be liable for the loss, up to the coverage limits of the lapsed insurance policy. The lender must also pay the insurance premium, any increased cost for a new policy for three years, and any late fees charged by the insurance company.
