About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the land lease bond actually covers

A land lease agreement bond backs a tenant’s obligations under a lease of land — most often where a public agency or a substantial private lessor wants assurance that rent gets paid and lease terms are honored. The lessor is the obligee, and the bond protects it if the tenant defaults.

It guarantees the core lease promises: paying rent and fees, performing the lease faithfully, and meeting any end-of-term or restoration obligations. If the tenant defaults and the lessor is harmed, the lessor can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, the tenant repays the surety.

There’s no single statewide statute fixing a land-lease bond amount — the requirement and the penal sum come from your lease. We run a quick soft credit check on these — never a hard inquiry — as part of approval; it does not set your price. Pricing is 1% of your bond amount, with a $100 minimum — enter your amount to see the exact figure.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Connecticut land lease bond?Pricing is 1% of your bond amount, with a $100 minimum — the amount sets the premium, not a credit tier. The amount itself is set by your lease — often a multiple of annual rent — so enter that figure and see your exact price at the application.

Is there a credit check?Yes — a quick soft credit check applies as part of approval, never a hard inquiry and never affecting your score. It does not set your price; pricing is 1% of your bond amount, with a $100 minimum.

Who requires it?The lessor — the party leasing you the land, which may be a public agency or a private owner. The bond is a term of the lease, so the exact requirement and amount come from your lease document.

What does the bond guarantee?That you pay rent and fees and perform the lease faithfully. If you default and the lessor is harmed, it can claim against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. It is not insurance for you.

What amount should I enter?The penal sum named in your land lease. There's no statewide default; if your lease isn't explicit, ask the lessor and send us the figure to confirm.

Which A-rated carriers underwrite these bonds?Typically Arch Insurance Company (A.M. Best A+) or Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company (A.M. Best A). Which one writes your bond depends on the bond type and your state. The carrier's name and official signature are printed on the bond you receive.
