A fidelity bond is a particular type of surety bond designed to protect a business owner or hiring party from damage or mismanagement by an employee. Fidelity bonds are typically created to manage long-term relationships and not individual projects. The bond is used to enforce proper dealings and honesty by employees and prevent damage and theft that might occur.
A surety bond or security bond is a guarantee from a third party company that any unpaid rent and or damages to a rental property will be covered, up to a certain amount. Some landlords mistakenly think of surety bonds as insurance, but experts explain that it is not insurance. Surety bonds are purchased by tenants and are non-refundable alternatives to security deposits, which can often be hefty lump sums. At a fraction of the cost of security deposits, which can range from 1-3 times the monthly rent, a security bond provides the same protection (up to the amount of the bond).
