About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the subagency bond actually guarantees

Under Minn. Stat. 327B.04, a manufactured home dealer with a place of business at more than one location designates one as its principal place of business and the others as subagencies. Each subagency is separately licensed by the Department of Labor and Industry and carries its own surety bond.

Like the principal dealer bond, the subagency bond is $20,000 for the protection of consumer customers, conditioned on faithful compliance with the laws and rules governing your business as a dealer — including Minn. Stat. 325D.44, 325F.67, and 325F.69 — and faithful performance of obligations to consumers at that location.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. At this stage we run one soft credit pull as part of underwriting; it informs approval, never the flat 3% price.

Minn. Stat. 327B.04 (subagencies)Minn. Stat. 327B.04 provides that a manufactured home dealer with more than one location designates one principal place of business and the others as subagencies, each separately licensed by the Department of Labor and Industry and bonded with a $20,000 surety bond for the protection of consumer customers, on the same conditions as the principal dealer bond.

Adding a subagency location to an existing manufactured home dealer license

Five minutes. The whole thing.

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.
