The Insurent Lease Guaranty Program allows for the closure of leases for creditworthy renters that don’t meet your financial requirements. These renters include graduating college students and professional school students entering the workforce; self-employed persons; non U.S. executives relocating to the U.S. without any U.S. based credit history; non-employed U.S. and non U.S. persons with cash liquid assets; retired persons; international students, and U.S. students.
The traditional way of closing leases and mitigating the risk of rent loss is by renting only to tenants meeting your financial and credit requirements, or asking for additional security, prepaid rent or a financially qualified co-signer. With the Insurent® Lease Guaranty Program, your vacancies are reduced as a result of the larger pool of qualified renters. In addition, rent loss is eliminated, and the rental process is streamlined for you, prospective tenants, and brokers, all at no cost to you. We back our promise with the institutional financial strength of a highly rated insurance company.
