A New Mexico manufactured-home installer or repairman files a $10,000 consumer protection bond with the Manufactured Housing Division under the Manufactured Housing Act. Ours is $100 flat — set by our carrier's rate book for this bond, and the application collects no credit information.
















License bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit fields, no follow-up scavenger hunt.
License bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed consumer protection bond arrives by email, ready to file with the Manufactured Housing Division for your installer or repairman license. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
New Mexico licenses manufactured-home installers and repairmen through the Regulation and Licensing Department’s Manufactured Housing Division (MHD) under the Manufactured Housing Act and 14.12.4 NMAC. The license is conditioned on a $10,000 consumer protection bond.
The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee: if the installer or repairman violates the Manufactured Housing Act or its regulations and a consumer suffers a monetary loss, the bond stands behind paying the consumer back. It’s a three-party arrangement — you (the principal), the surety, and the State of New Mexico (the obligee), with consumers protected.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a consumer claim, you repay the surety. The bond stays available to consumers for a period after you cease doing business, so keep it active for as long as you hold the license.
These are the actual issuing fields — the application collects no credit information.
