What is an Estate Bond?

An Estate Bond, also known as an Executor Bond, Fiduciary Bond, or Probate Bond, is a type of court bond that ensures the executor of a deceased or incapacitated person’s estate fulfills their duties according to the will or trust. Acting as an insurance policy, it guarantees that the executor will manage and distribute the estate lawfully and ethically. Requirements for Estate Bonds vary by state and county, so it’s essential to check with your local municipality to determine if one is needed.

How much will my Estate Bond cost?

Court bond requirements vary by city and state. Typically the executor bond cost will depend on the coverage needed based on the value of the estate. Estate Bond premiums are typically .5% of the total bond cost. The price can vary if the individual seeking the bond has poor credit or negative bond history. Bonding Solutions has a number of different programs set in place to help each of our clients find the best rates possible. As an executor of an estate, we know that there are a lot of other things you will have to worry about which is why we make the bond application process as simple as possible. Being an executor of an estate and obtaining an executor bond doesn’t have to be time-consuming or costly. Contact our team today to learn your options.

Why do I need a Surety Bond for an Estate?

Estate Bonds protect the beneficiaries and estate from any fraud, embezzlement, or illegal acts by the person appointed by the court (the executor) to handle all matters regarding the estate and assets. The executor is responsible for a number of different things which are all covered by the bond if any fraudulent or unlawful acts occur including:

  • Contacting beneficiaries
  • Getting the estate appraised
  • Paying off any debts
  • Evaluating assets
  • Paying the appropriate taxes on all assets
  • Dividing assets according to the last will and testament

The estate bond is a form of insurance for all beneficiaries. Sadly, when someone passes away it is not uncommon to see an executor of the estate fail to abide by the legal agreement of the will, which is why the estate bond is often required. This type of court bond protects the beneficiaries from any financial loss that may occur on behalf of the executor’s failure to divide assets accordingly.
