About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the condo assessments bond actually covers

Under the Virginia Condominium Act, a declarant (the developer) of a condominium that must be registered with the Common Interest Community Board posts a bond in favor of the unit owners’ association. Code of Virginia § 55.1-1968 conditions the bond on payment of all assessments levied against the units the declarant owns.

The amount is $1,000 per unit, but not less than $10,000 and not more than $100,000. The bond is maintained while the declarant owns more than 10% of the units; if it owns less than 10%, it stays in place until the declarant is current on assessments. The Board may accept a letter of credit in lieu of the bond.

The point is simple: developer-owned units owe assessments like any other, and this bond guarantees the association collects them. We issue the amount your project requires with premiums starting from $225 at the $10,000 minimum; the application collects no credit information at the standard amount.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Virginia condo assessments bond?Premiums start from $225 at the $10,000 minimum. The bond amount is set at $1,000 per unit, with a floor of $10,000 and a ceiling of $100,000, and your exact price is set by that figure at the application.
Who has to post it?The declarant — the developer of a condominium that must be registered with the Common Interest Community Board. It runs in favor of the unit owners’ association under § 55.1-1968.
How long must I keep it?While you own more than 10% of the units. If you own less than 10%, the bond stays in place until you are current on the assessments owed on your units; the Board returns it once that condition is met.
Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information at the standard amount, and most applications approve instantly. If a check does run on a larger bond amount, it is a soft pull that never affects your score.
Can I use a letter of credit instead?The statute lets the Common Interest Community Board accept a letter of credit in lieu of the bond. A surety bond is usually cheaper — you pay a premium starting from $225 rather than tying up bank collateral.
