officer, agent, or other employee of the person may require, as a condition precedent,
concurrent, or subsequent to the sale or financing the purchase of the property or to
lending money upon the security of a mortgage thereon or for the renewal or extension
of any such loan or mortgage or for the performance of any other act in connection

financed or to whom the money is to be loaned or for whom the extension, renewal, or
other act is to be granted, or performed, negotiate any insurance policy or renewal
thereof covering the property through a particular insurance company or insurance
producer.
2. This section does not prevent the exercise by any person of the right to designate
reasonable financial requirements as to the insurance company, the terms and
provisions of the policy, and the adequacy of the coverage with respect to insurance
on property pledged or mortgaged to the person; nor does this section prohibit the
right of any person from voluntarily negotiating or soliciting the placing of such
insurance; nor does this section forbid the securing of insurance or renewal thereof at
the request of the purchaser or borrower or because of the failure of the purchaser or
borrower to furnish the necessary insurance or renewal thereof.
3. Violation of this section constitutes an unfair insurance practice. The person violating
this section must be proceeded against under this chapter.
