DEVELOPER SURETY BONDS

BOND TYPE and PURPOSE

Tarion Warranty Corporation Bond

Tarion ensures that builders abide by the Ontario New Home Warranties Plan Act and protects purchasers when developers fail to perform their obligations.

The Tarion Bond guarantees each purchaser’s deposit up to $20,000 per condominium and provides the warranty protection required by Tarion.

Developers benefit from a Tarion Bond since it eliminates the need to post a letter of credit or other type of security to Tarion.  

In addition, the first $20,000 of deposits are eligible to be released to the Developer to help finance the development of the project.  

The Tarion bond is very competitively priced in comparison to a letter of credit and can provide an inexpensive source of project financing.


Excess Condominium Deposit Insurance (ECDI) & Condominium Deposit Insurance (CDI)

The Condominium Act requires that deposits paid by a purchaser to a condominium developer be held by a trustee.

Deposits may be released to the developer so long as an ECDI or CDI policy is issued. These policies guarantee that the deposits will be repaid if the developer fails to deliver the purchaser’s condominium in accordance with the purchase agreement.

ECDI policies are issued for condominium projects covered by the Ontario New Home Warranties Plan Act.  

The ECDI policy guarantees the return of the purchasers’ deposits in excess of the $20,000 guaranteed by the Tarion Bond.

A CDI policy is issued for condominium projects that are not covered by the Ontario New Home Warranties Plan Act, such as:

  • Commercial Condominiums
  • Office Condominiums
  • Retail Condominiums
  • Residential Condominium Conversions

Developers benefit from an ECDI and/or CDI policy since these products enable them to use purchasers’ deposits as a low-cost and easily-accessible source of financing for the condominium project.


Subdivision Bonds

For large development companies that wish to provide bonds as an alternative to letters of credit to secure their residential development obligations to municipalities


Purchaser’s Deposit Bond

When purchasing a new condominium unit, substantial deposits are usually required by the developer.  The Purchaser’s Deposit Bond allows the purchaser to defer the payment of some of these deposits until the purchaser occupies the condominium unit.
