DEPOSIT ALTERNATIVE PROGRAM

Move In Easier with Lower Upfront Move-In Costs.

Our Deposit Alternative Program gives qualified renters an alternative to paying a large upfront security deposit, while helping protect the property owner’s interests.

Instead of paying a large upfront security deposit, approved renters may have the option to enroll in the program for a low monthly fee.

Lower upfront cost for renters

HOW IT WORKS

A Better Alternative to a Traditional Security Deposit

Qualified renters may choose our Deposit Alternative Program in place of a traditional security deposit.

Here’s how it works:

  • Pay a low monthly program fee instead of a large upfront deposit
  • Reduce cash needed at move-in
  • Enjoy greater flexibility when securing your next home

Important: Participation in this program does not waive resident responsibility for damages, unpaid rent, or other lease charges.

FLEXIBILITY FOR RENTERS. PROTECTION FOR OWNERS

Designed With Owner Protection in Mind

Our Deposit Alternative Program is designed to improve affordability for renters without compromising owner interests.

  • renters still go through our screening standards
  • renters remain financially responsible for damages and lease charges
  • Program includes an owner protection component for eligible covered losses, subject to program terms
  • Supports leasing flexibility while maintaining risk controls

This is not lower standards, it is a different approach to deposits.
