A Company Called zumper is launching a first of its kind rent guarantee program. That means if a tenant cant cover rent for some reason other than covid, the landlord still gets paid. Kpix 5s Susie Steimle shows us how it works and what the limitations are. Reporter for roughly 10 million small landlords across the country, cash flow from monthly rent is critical to keep them afloat. Some landlords are worse off than the tenants you know. They count on the income. They need to pay their mortgage. They need to pay their bills. Reporter when times for tenants get tough, that monthly rent payment to landlords candice peer. Zumper is offering a way to make sure that small landlords dont lose out just because the tenant is struggling. At its core were trying to help the Property Owner make sure they get the 12 months of rent. Reporter its called the instarent guarantee. Heres how it works. If you find a tenant through the app and agree to pay them 2 of the monthly rent, you can guarantee you wont lose out if your tenant cant pay. If theyre not paying that rent, we end up covering you up to the 12 months. They dont guarantee rent after that 12 month period. Reporter Attorney Daniel bornstein encourages landlords to read the fine print. It is trying to limit the likelihood of a failed relationship within your unit. To ensure that they dont have to actually cover the rent. Reporter zumper will only cover apartments that are less than 110 of the median market rate or 4,000 a month in San Francisco. The tenant has to have a credit score of 650 or higher. And an income of three times the monthly rent and no history of evictions to qualify for coverage. And if you have lost rent due to covid19, or any future recession, it wont be covered. Its a tremendously stressful period for many, many people. Who are confronted with individuals who, for a number of reasons, are not able to pay the rent. Reporter at 4,000 a month, a landlord would pay 80 a month to ensure that rent. If the tenant skips out at the end of the lease, bornstein says it doesnt quite pencil out. So on the 11th month, if you have paid close to 1,000, and all you are going to get is potentially one month of rent paid by zumper if the step than doesnt pay or you overpaid for that insurance policy. Reporter for others, its purchasing peace of mind. Which can make all the difference when inviting someone to stay in your home. Its a decision fraught with lot of stress. Frankly. And anxiety right . So how can we help out in that regard right and provide a level of comfort and assurance. Reporter its the Fastest Growing rental platform with new investors like black stone.
