Minnesota requires every licensed manufactured home installer to file a $2,500 bond with the Department of Labor and Industry. The 3% of $2,500 is below our minimum, so the price is just $275 flat. One soft credit pull, e-signed in 1–2 business days.
















Your installer license is waiting on this bond. Here is the entire process — no broker phone tag:
Business details, owner information, effective date. That is the application — the only extra step is a one-time consent to a soft credit pull.
Most of these clear quickly; if underwriting needs anything, you hear from an underwriter within 48 hours. The credit check is a soft pull that never affects your score.
Pay online and receive the executed bond ready to file with your installer license application or renewal. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the state insists.
3% of the $2,500 bond is $75 — below our $275 minimum, so you pay $275 per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
Minnesota licenses manufactured home installers through the Department of Labor and Industry, and conditions the license on a $2,500 surety bond under Minn. Stat. 327B.041. The bond is a compliance and consumer-protection guarantee: it stands behind your faithful performance of installation work and your compliance with the laws, ordinances, and rules governing the license.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Minnesota together with harmed customers (the protected parties). If an installer fails to perform or violates the installation rules and someone is harmed, that party can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond must be written in compliance with Minn. Stat. 326B.0921 and stay continuous for the life of your license; the surety can cancel future liability only on 30 days’ written notice to the commissioner.
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.
