What this bond does

For a foreclosure sale governed by Maryland Rule 14-213, the individual authorized to sell gives security for complying with court orders about the sale or distribution of its proceeds. Match that selling role to the person named in your request.

Who needs it
The person asked to provide security for the Maryland matter covered by this county-specific offering. In a Rule 14-213 foreclosure sale, the applicant is the individual authorized to make the sale; a purchaser or lender is not automatically the principal.
Who it protects
Rule 14-213 requires the sale bond to run to the State of Maryland and conditions it on compliance with court orders concerning the sale or proceeds. Use the required form for the named obligee and conditions in your case.

Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Keep the county and sale stage with your request

This Propeller offering is labeled “All other counties” and is separate from the Montgomery County application. Check the county in the case caption before continuing. The county label identifies the purchase route; it does not establish a different statewide legal duty.

Rule 14-213 provides for a bond before sale and can require an increase before ratification depending on the purchaser, with court authority to adjust the amount. Use the amount required for your current sale stage. This page lists no preset amount or term; applying through Propeller is separate from issuance and filing.

Sources

Have these ready

  1. The Maryland county, court and case number from the foreclosure paperwork.
  2. The bond request or required blank form and any order setting security.
  3. The legal name of the individual authorized to sell and their stated capacity.
  4. The property details, current sale stage and requested bond amount and period.
  5. After issuance: check the State of Maryland obligee and required conditions, complete execution and follow the court’s filing instructions.

Questions about this bond

Should I use this page for Montgomery County?

Use the separately listed Montgomery County offering when that is what your request calls for. This application is labeled for all other counties; confirm the case county before applying.

Is the successful bidder the person who gives this bond?

Under Rule 14-213, the bond is given by the individual authorized to make the sale. The buyer’s identity can affect the required amount, but buying the property does not itself make the bidder the principal on that sale bond.

Can the required amount change after the sale?

Yes. Rule 14-213 includes an increase before ratification for certain purchasers and allows court adjustments. Use the amount required at your stage of the proceeding rather than assuming an earlier amount remains sufficient.

How do I begin the application?

Select Purchase Now to open Propeller in a new tab. Have the county and bond request ready. After the bond is issued, complete execution and file as instructed; purchasing does not complete filing or ratification.
