Why do I need this bond?
By posting a Maine transient seller surety bond, principals (transient sellers) pledge to comply with all requirements of Title 32, Chapter 128, Section 14708, Subsection 3 of the Maine Revised Statutes and make full accounting and payment of all funds collected while on the job.
If the principal fails to comply with these terms, the bond protects harmed parties from financial loss up to the full amount of the bond. The principal, in turn, must reimburse the surety for all damages paid out.
