What is a Deposit Bond?
A deposit Bond (or Deposit Guarantee) is a simple and cost effective alternative to providing a cash deposit when purchasing a property. They are particularly useful if you are buying a property at auction or borrowing 100% of the purchase price. Using a Deposit Bond means you don’t need to keep a significant sum of cash on hand for what could be a prolonged period of time. They are able to move quickly to purchase.
Deposit Bonds are also an excellent solution for investors who don't have cash at their disposal and don't want to cash in investments such as shares. Also for many borrowers, short term finance is costly and time consuming involving additional fees, high interest rates and delays in processing.
