Utah tenant lease bonds.
From $100.
A tenant lease bond guarantees a tenant will meet the terms of a lease — rent, utilities, and covenants. This is a private, landlord-required guarantee, not a state mandate: the landlord sets the amount in the lease. Whatever that figure is, pricing starts from $100, with a quick soft credit check that never affects your score.

What it is and who needs it.
What the lease bond actually covers
A tenant lease bond (also called a lease-guarantee bond) is a financial guarantee a tenant gives a landlord that the tenant will meet the terms of a lease. It is most common in commercial leases — warehouse, industrial, retail, or office space — where a landlord wants assurance behind a multi-year obligation.
It protects the landlord against losses such as nonpayment of rent, unpaid utilities the tenant agreed to cover, breach of the lease, or damage beyond normal wear and tear. If the tenant defaults, the landlord can claim against the bond up to its limit, and the surety pays a valid claim.
Unlike most bonds on this site, this is not a Utah statutory requirement — there is no state law mandating it. The landlord sets the amount in the lease, and the bond simply substitutes for a large cash security deposit. It is not insurance for the tenant: if the surety pays the landlord, the tenant repays the surety. Pricing starts from $100; a quick soft credit check may apply, never a hard inquiry.

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 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.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
