Bond premiums don't stop when your project is built. Neither do extension fees. Both run every year until the bond is released. That's the cost of waiting. #BondRelease #DFM #BondReleaseConsultants

There's no flat rate to get off bond. The cost depends on the project. What stays consistent is the goal: get off bond faster and reduce what you're paying while you wait. #BondRelease

You can hire someone to get your building permit processed and approved faster. That's permit expediting.

Submission coming up? Talk to an expediter before it goes in, not after the first round of comments.

This sediment forebay protects the rain garden downstream from sediment, debris, and incoming flow. That only holds if the inlet pipe, riprap armoring, and sediment level all check out. Know the condition of yours? #stormwater #stormwatermanagement #stormwaterrunoff

Hiring a bond release consultant has a cost. So does every month your project stays on bond. Premiums. Extension fees. Repairs. They all add up until the bond is fully released. #BondRelease

The healthiest-looking plant in a rain garden can be the one that shouldn't be there. Fortunately, a comprehensive #stormwater inspection doesn't just check that plants are growing; it reads whether they belong. Do you know what's really growing in yours? #stormwatercompliance

Bond release can take 6 months. It can also take 5+ years. The biggest variable is how prepared you were during construction. Mark Wells explains what drives the timeline and how starting the process during development, rather than after, changes the outcome. #BondRelease

Is sediment reducing your stormwater pond’s capacity?

Bathymetric surveys measure underwater elevations, storage volume, and sediment buildup—helping you plan maintenance, verify as-builts, and support bond release.

A bioretention facility can look healthy but actually be failing. A stormwater inspection doesn't just read the surface. It assesses the armoring, mulch, plants, wells, & underground basins as one system to ensure it's working as designed. Would yours pass inspection?

Missing a geotechnical inspection during construction means a post-construction inspection at the end. It takes time, costs money, and was avoidable. #BondRelease #Construction #DFMDevelopmentServices #RealEstateDevelopment

[DFM Dev Services @DfmDevServices]

Finished construction doesn’t always mean your bond is ready for release. Inspections, punch-list items, as-built drawings, and utility sign-offs can extend closeout when they aren’t coordinated and completed on time.
