Questions about Surety Bonds in Arlington, Texas

Overview of the Arlington surety bonds

Arlington surety bonds serve as a contract between three parties. The side posting the bond is the principal, the side requiring it is the obligee and the side underwriting the bond is the surety. In this agreement your business is the principal and the city or state authority is the obligee.

Businesses or individuals breaking the contractual agreement of the bond may face a bond claim. Claimants can get a compensation up to the maximum penal sum of your bond. You should avoid claims at all costs, as even though the surety covers the initial compensation, it’s up to you to reimburse it eventually.

How much does a Arlington bond cost?

The final bond cost is formed on the basis of the bond amount that you have to post. The bond premium is a small fraction of the whole amount, a percentage usually varying between 1% and 5%, if you have a stable financial background.

The most important factors that surety companies take into account when considering your bond application are your personal credit score, business financials or any liquid assets you can present. The higher your score, the lower bonding rate you will get.

What if I have bad credit?

It is possible to get bonded even you have bad or no credit. Lance Surety Bonds created a Bad Credit Program for applicants with low credit scores, tax liens, bankruptcies, and civil judgements.

A realistic bonding rate for bad credit applicants is in the range between 5% and 15%. As we’ve partnered up with a number of A-rated, T-listed surety companies, you can be sure that you will get a top rate, no matter what your assets are.
