How Much Does a Maine Surety Bond Cost?
The cost of a Maine surety bond ranges from $250 to $10,000. The required bond amount varies by trade. A mortgage broker, for example, needs a $25,000 surety bond. A money transmitter needs a $100,000 bond. You are not required to pay the full amount of the bond, however.
When buying your required bond, you only pay a premium rate. The premium rate is based on several factors, including your credit rating, business experience, and liquid and fixed assets. The rate range is from 1% to 10% of the bond amount.
Your surety bond rate will range from 1% to 3% if you have a 700 or higher credit score. A credit score of 600 to 699 qualifies for a 3% to 5% premium rate. The rate for a 599 or lower credit score is 5% to 10%.
