TX tenant lease bonds.
From $100. Enter your amount.
A tenant lease bond is a private guarantee to your landlord — often used in place of a cash security deposit on a commercial or high-value residential lease. It is not a Texas legal requirement; the amount is whatever your landlord or lease names. Pricing is 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — your exact price appears at the application. A quick soft credit check may apply, never a hard inquiry.

What it is and who needs it.
What the lease bond actually does
A tenant lease bond is a surety guarantee that you will meet your obligations under a lease — paying rent and leaving the property in good condition. The landlord is the obligee; if you default and the landlord is harmed, the landlord can claim against the bond, and the surety pursues you for repayment. It is not insurance for you.
Tenants often use it as a deposit alternative: instead of tying up a large cash security deposit, you pay a small premium and the surety stands behind the lease. It is common on commercial leases and high-value residential ones. This is a private, contractual arrangement — Texas law does not require a lease bond.
Because there is no statute, the amount is whatever your lease or landlord names — often a multiple of monthly rent. Enter that figure at the application and your exact price is quoted at 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — with a quick soft credit check that never affects your score.
