When you lease state land from the Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR Land Division), DLNR can require a performance bond guaranteeing you will observe the lease terms. We issue it at a flat 3% with a soft credit pull — enter the amount DLNR set and the premium updates.

Your details, the bond amount the lease requires, and an effective date — plus a one-time consent to a soft credit pull.

The Department of Land and Natural Resources leases state land through its Land Division, and can condition a lease on a performance bond. The bond guarantees the lessee's full and faithful observance and performance of all the terms, conditions, and covenants of the lease.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the lessee/principal), the surety, and DLNR (the obligee/lessor). If a lessee defaults on rent, misuses the land, or fails to restore it, DLNR can recover against the bond, and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. DLNR may revoke a lease where the bonding requirement is not met.
DLNR sets the bond amount in the lease, commonly tied to the annual rent — the Department has used roughly one to two times the annual rental, though larger or specialized leases can require substantially more. Enter the amount your lease names and we issue it at a flat 3% with a soft credit pull.
These are the actual underwriting fields, including a one-time consent to a soft credit pull. Submit once and your bond is typically issued within 1–2 business days.
