What it is and who needs it.
What the developer bond actually guarantees
Oregon's Construction Contractors Board (CCB) licenses developers as well as builders. A commercial developer — someone who arranges for construction on commercial property they own or control, then sells it — carries a developer endorsement, and ORS 701.084 sets the bond at $25,000.
The developer bond is a protection guarantee for the people you build for and sell to: it's a three-party arrangement among you (the principal), the surety, and the State of Oregon through the CCB (the obligee). If the CCB issues a final order against you under ORS 701.146, the surety pays up to the bond amount.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The developer endorsement is distinct from a contractor endorsement; if you both develop and contract, the CCB may require the appropriate bond for each role. The bond must stay active for the two-year life of your license.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $25,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it

What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $225 at the $25,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
