Surety Bonds
Of course, we know everything there is to know about surety bonds, and it’s our job to make them as straightforward for you to understand as possible. Essentially, a surety bond is a binding contract between three different parties. There’s an Obligee, who is the beneficiary to the bond. A Principal, who is required to carry out a specific obligation. Finally, there’s the Surety, the person or entity that must pay money or carry out an obligation if someone else can’t do it or fails to act on their contractual obligations.
There are many classifications of surety bond out there, and our company handles the following:
Court Bonds
The primary purpose of our court bonds is to offer protection against the loss of money during court proceedings. There are loads of different types of court bonds that we regularly deal with, and the most common of which is an appeal bond. This surety bond is for appellants that want to delay the outcome of a judgment. There are also things known as attachment bonds, court cost bonds, injunction bonds, and so much more. If you want to learn more about court bonds and the service we offer, then take a look at the Court Bonds section on our site.
Subdivision Bonds
These bonds are often referred to as performance bonds, completion bonds, or site improvement bonds. In essence, they’re all to do with real estate improvements. Subdivision bonds ensure that land improvements are no longer the financial burden of the public entity. Instead, the responsibility lands on the shoulders of the owner of the property, or the body developing it. Once the improvements have been completed, the ownership is then given back to the governing public entity. It aims to protect public entities from developers or landowners not completing specific improvement projects that they’ve been contractually obliged to complete. You may also hear these referred to as construction bonds when they’re used specifically within the construction industry, and some people refer to them as developer bonds or maintenance bonds as well. To learn more, head to the Subdivision Bonds section of our site.
License Bonds/Permit Bonds
There are plenty of different license bonds or permit bonds out there that businesses need to be made aware of. The whole idea of these bonds is that they offer protection for the governing agency and general public against anything wrong that the bonded company does. They make absolutely sure that the principal to the bond acts according to all applicable laws and regulations revolving around the activities they’re caught up in. Essentially, this helps prevent fraud, theft, and many other adverse actions.
Contract Bonds
Lastly, we’ve made a name for ourselves as a leading provider of various contract bonds. This type of bond will ensure that the terms of a specific contract are fulfilled. If they’re not, then a claim can be made against the bond to regain any financial losses. We deal with three types of contract bonds; bid bonds, performance bonds, and payment bonds.
Bid bonds revolve around ensuring bidders of projects will actually enter into the contract if they win the bid and are awarded the job. Performance bonds are commonly found in the construction industry and focus on ensuring that the contract is carried out and that all terms and conditions are met and abided by. It also guarantees that the project is completed within a certain period at a set fee. Finally, payment bonds are there to ensure that project owners don’t have to pay any subcontractors or cough up additional fees for materials. Under these bonds, the contractor agrees that they will pay all these extra costs.
Typically, these three contract bonds are all used in conjunction with one another. To learn more, see the Contract Bonds page on our site.
