About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Wisconsin requires a license to sell two or more manufactured homes in a calendar year, issued by the Department of Safety and Professional Services (DSPS) under Wis. Stat. 101.951. A dealer must show financial responsibility — a minimum net worth or a surety bond — sized in SPS 305.323, and the bond is filed on form SBD-10679.

This $100,000 tier is the higher-volume dealer level under Table 305.323-1, applied to dealers whose volume puts them above the standard tier. The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee: it stands behind clear title and your compliance with the manufactured-home dealer laws, including the warranty and disclosure duties in Wis. Stat. 101.953.

It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays a valid claim, you repay the surety. The exact tier is set by SPS 305.323 against your operation — confirm the amount on your DSPS application; if a lower tier applies we issue the $25,000 or $50,000 version at its own flat price.

Wis. Stat. 101.951 / SPS 305.323 (form SBD-10679)Wis.

Code SPS 305.323 and filed on form SBD-10679. The $100,000 figure is the higher-volume dealer tier; verify which tier applies on your DSPS application.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the $100,000 manufactured home dealer bond?The premium is $1,000 flat — the price you see is the checkout price, the same for every dealer at this tier. A quick soft credit check may affect approval, never the price.

Which tier do I need — $25,000, $50,000, or $100,000?It depends on your role and volume under SPS 305.323. The $100,000 figure is the higher-volume dealer tier; the standard non-broker tier is $50,000 and the broker/entry tier is $25,000. Confirm the amount on your DSPS application — we issue any tier at its own flat price.

Can I post net worth instead of a bond?Yes — Wis. Stat. 101.951 and SPS 305.323 let a dealer show a minimum net worth or post a surety bond. At this tier the bond often still costs far less than tying up $100,000 in capital, since you pay a flat $1,000 premium.

Is there a credit check?A quick soft credit check may apply — never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score. It informs approval, not price; the price is $1,000 either way.

When does it renew?The bond must stay active while you hold the license. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available.
