What is a Surety Bond?
Suretyship is a contractual relationship whereby one party, a surety, agrees to answer for the debt, default, or miscarriage of another, a contractor.
Most surety business is simply about guaranteeing. In the old days, when you knew the cobbler next door, you knew that he would do a good job making a pair of shoes for you. In the event there was a problem you would go back and have him correct it.
As our cities grew, it became increasingly more difficult to go to the professional next door to get the job done. Since you no longer knew who was doing the job but still wanted some way to guarantee that the job would be performed correctly, a surety bond was supplied. If the job was not performed properly, the surety company would step in and hire someone else to finish that job.
As a wholesaler, our client is you, the producing broker, not the client direct. Therefore, we give the same attention and response time to your $10,000 and $10,000,000 bond needs. We will invoice you and allow you to pay us net, avoiding any time delays in collecting your commission. After all, you worked for the account, you earned your commission, and should not have to wait for it.
Commission starts at 12.5% for all new brokers but can be increased with volume. We look forward to you joining the Price & Price Enterprises family.
