Florida mobile home dealer bonds.
$275 flat.
Florida requires a single mobile home dealer (or broker) with four or fewer supplemental licenses to file a $25,000 bond with the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. Ours is $275 flat — the price you see is the checkout price — and this license bond's application collects no credit information at all.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Florida licenses mobile home dealers and brokers through the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV), and conditions the license on a surety bond. It is a consumer-and-state-protection guarantee standing behind your compliance with Florida's mobile home sales and titling laws.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Florida — with the Director of the Division of Motorist Services named as obligee — plus harmed buyers as protected parties. If a dealer fails to deliver clear title, misapplies a buyer's money, or violates dealer law, the harmed party can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Under §320.77, a single dealer with four or fewer supplemental licenses posts $25,000; a dealer with more than four supplemental licenses posts $50,000 — confirm which applies on your application.
