- I'm required to get a surety bond (https://bit.ly/3MZpB8V). Does it matter which bond agency I use?
- It can make a huge difference. 
Let me explain what bond agencies do so there's no confusion. Bond agencies represent multiple surety companies and match bond applicants with the surety that best fits their needs. Most surety companies do not work directly with applicants. The best surety markets only work with the top agencies in the country that fully understand the product and could provide them significant volume. Therefore, if you want access to the best surety companies you must work with a top-tier agency. 
- So, what are the benefits of working with a large bond agency?
- Large bond agencies can negotiate more aggressive underwriting resulting in lower rates (https://bit.ly/3N3Ossr), larger bond limits and a higher likelihood of approval for you.
- Why would bond underwriting vary by agency?
- Agencies like JW Surety Bonds (https://bit.ly/3ietUPI) have exclusive programs to package groups of clients together to lessen the risk to the bonding company. Agencies are the bonding company's customers and like any business the biggest customers are usually favored with special arrangements.
- What else should I consider when choosing a bond agency?
- Obtaining bonds can be a time-sensitive issue and turnaround time can vary greatly by agency. Many bond agencies have online applications but only a handful can provide instant quotes online. Smaller bond agencies usually require a significant amount of information to apply for a bond. To work around this, they may broker you to a larger agency that has access to specialty bond programs requiring little information to apply, possibly costing you more time and money. Also, only a select few agencies are provided in-house underwriting authority from the sureties which means bonds can be approved on-premises as opposed to waiting for the surety's approval. 
- Where could I find a top tier bond agency? 
- Look no further. Whether you need to meet large or small bond requirements, JW Surety Bonds is the best fit.
