Oregon Manufactured Structures Dealer Bond
Overview
Oregon's Department of Consumer and Business Services requires every manufactured structures dealer to carry a surety bond before issuing or renewing a dealer license. This bond protects Oregon consumers who purchase manufactured homes, park model recreational vehicles, or floating homes from a licensed dealer. If a dealer engages in fraud, misrepresentation, or fails to meet their legal obligations, the bond provides a financial remedy for harmed buyers. Bond Titan makes it fast and simple to get bonded and move forward with your license.
Who Needs This Bond?
If you sell, broker, or otherwise deal in manufactured structures in Oregon — including manufactured homes, floating homes, or park model RVs — you need this bond to obtain or maintain your dealer license through the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services. This applies whether you operate a dedicated manufactured housing lot, a dealership that includes manufactured structures, or any business where the sale of these structures is part of your regular commercial activity. A lapsed or missing bond puts your dealer license at risk and can halt your ability to legally transact sales.
What is this Bond For?
This bond exists to hold Oregon manufactured structures dealers accountable to consumers and to the state's licensing standards. It guarantees that if a dealer fails to perform legally required obligations — such as properly titling a home, honoring a sales contract, or avoiding fraudulent sales practices — an injured party can file a claim against the bond for financial recovery. The Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services is the obligee, meaning it enforces the bond's requirements and oversees the licensing program. As the principal, you are the dealer responsible for fulfilling every covered obligation.
When is it Required?
Renewal is a real concern with this bond — your manufactured structures dealer license in Oregon is tied directly to maintaining continuous bond coverage, so any gap in bonding can trigger a lapse in your license authority. You need this bond in place before your initial dealer license is issued and it must remain active throughout every license period. If your bond is cancelled or expires without renewal, the state can suspend your ability to operate as a licensed dealer. Plan ahead to ensure your bond renews alongside your license to avoid any interruption to your business.
Where Does it Apply?
This is a statewide Oregon requirement. It applies to any manufactured structures dealer operating anywhere within Oregon's borders, regardless of what county or city you are based in. The Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services administers the program at the state level, so there is no separate local bond requirement tied to this license.
