Implementing a required renters insurance program has become standard business practice for portfolio managers across the industry. A recent independent study estimated that a required renters insurance program saves $22 per door annually – at no cost to the property owner. ResidentShield Protection Plan provides comprehensive property risk management, with two renters insurance program* options that protect you from resident-caused loss, and offer your residents proven coverage.
Enrollment is easy for your residents, and Yardi provides training for your leasing staff, along with marketing materials, detailed program progress reports, and policyholder customer service. Eligible landlords can earn revenue for assisting with program implementation and ongoing administration. And insurance compliance tracking is built right into Yardi Voyager.
