Benefits of Deposit Bonds
Deposit Power expands the world of property for everyone by giving you to the power to move fast with your property purchase.
How deposit bonds speed up the property buying process.
In competitive buying situations like auctions or private sales, timing is everything — and deposit bonds have you covered. They offer a flexible, hassle-free alternative to upfront cash, giving you the confidence to act fast and secure your dream property now.
With a deposit bond, you can focus on making your move without stressing about cash flow. Applying is quick and easy – in most cases, you’ll get approved almost instantly. It’s the smarter, simpler way to stay ahead in fast-paced property markets.
What are the benefits of a deposit bond?
Cash flow
By using a deposit bond instead of paying a cash deposit upfront, you can keep your funds in more lucrative investments or savings accounts, avoiding the need to tie up a large sum of money during the purchasing process.
Convenience
For buyers involved in competitive situations like auctions or private sales, deposit bonds provide convenience. Rather than scrambling to provide a large upfront cash deposit, a deposit bond allows you to move quickly and confidently to secure the perfect property.
Easy and fast
Deposit bonds are easy to obtain, you can apply online and have your application approved almost instantly. Because you only pay a small one-time fee for a deposit bond, this method is also very cost effective.

Providing additional assurance to buyers and vendors / sellers

Are there limitations with using a deposit bond?
While deposit bonds offer significant benefits, there are some limitations you should keep in mind:
- A deposit bond postpones a cash deposit, but it doesn’t replace it – you will still need to pay the full amount at settlement.
- Your deposit bonds come with an expiry date. In some cases, Deposit Power can offer extensions for longer settlement periods, ensuring you're covered until your property is ready.
- Not all sellers accept deposit bonds. It’s best to confirm with the seller before you make an offer.
