What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Louisiana certifies real estate education vendors — the providers who offer prelicensing and continuing education courses — through the Louisiana Real Estate Commission (LREC). Certification requires proof of a $5,000 surety bond.
The bond runs in favor of the State of Louisiana and is conditioned for the protection of the contractual rights of students who attend the vendor's real estate courses. If a vendor fails its students in a covered way, they can recover against the bond up to $5,000.
The bond must stay effective throughout the vendor's certification period, and the LREC requires annual proof of renewal. We track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out so your certification never lapses over a missed filing.
