About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually covers

Mississippi licenses developers of factory-built homes — those who develop communities or projects using factory-built homes — through the State Fire Marshal’s Office under the Factory-Built Homes Act (Miss. Code § 75-49-1 et seq.). The license is conditioned on a surety bond.

The Fire Marshal’s rules and regulations set the developer bond at $25,000 per facility, with a $50,000 minimum for three or more facilities. The bond stands behind your compliance with the Act and protects the public harmed by a developer’s violation of the licensing law.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Enter the amount your facility count requires; pricing starts from $100, with a quick soft credit check that never affects your score.

Miss. Code § 75-49-1 et seq.; State Fire Marshal regulationsUnder Mississippi’s Factory-Built Homes Act (Miss. Code § 75-49-1 et seq.) and the State Fire Marshal’s rules and regulations (Title 19), a developer of factory-built homes must provide proof of a $25,000 surety bond per facility, or a minimum $50,000 bond for three or more facilities. Confirm the current amount on your license application.

How does the per-facility amount work? ▾
