A tenant lease bond is a private, contractual alternative to a cash security deposit; it is not required by Ohio statute. Ohio’s landlord-tenant law (ORC Chapter 5321) governs security deposits but does not mandate a surety bond. The bond applies only where a landlord agrees to accept one in lieu of cash — confirm the amount and terms with your landlord or lease.
