## What the compliance program does

- **$23.00 / $32.00** - Per enrolled unit - Plan 100 or Plan 250

Coverage is underwritten by AmTrust Financial. Figures are program options as of 2026 and are illustrative, not a quote or binder. Actual availability, pricing, limits, and terms depend on the carrier, the property, and underwriting.

- **Tracks coverage** - a live roster of which units are covered, at what liability limit, and through what date
- **Interested-party alerts** - your insurer notifies you of any lapse, cancellation, or non-renewal
- **Keeps proof on file** - declarations pages and certificates are stored against each unit automatically
- **Closes gaps** - uninsured residents enroll by QR code with Plan 100 ($100,000, $23.00/mo) or Plan 250 ($200,000, $32.00/mo)
- **Reports on demand** - export a compliance snapshot for owners or your own carrier

## Why tracking matters

A lease requirement is only as good as the follow-through. Residents let policies lapse for non-payment, cancel after move-in, or never buy coverage at all - and a paper file of declarations pages goes stale the day it is collected. Tracking turns a one-time move-in check into continuous confirmation, so an uninsured unit surfaces the day it happens instead of at claim time.

## How the QR-code gap-fill works

When a unit shows uncovered, the fix is one scan away. The resident scans a property QR code, binds coverage in minutes, and lists your property as an interested party - and the unit flips back into compliance on your roster automatically.

- Flag an uncovered or lapsed unit on the roster
- Send the resident the property QR code or link
- They enroll in Plan 100 ($100,000, $23.00/mo) or Plan 250 ($200,000, $32.00/mo)
- Proof lands on file and the unit returns to compliance

## Manager reporting

Everything rolls up into a report you can pull any time, so an owner or your own carrier can see the portfolio at a glance:

- Percentage of units in compliance, by property
- Each resident's limit and effective and expiration dates
- A running log of lapses, cancellations, and reinstatements
- An exportable snapshot for audits, owners, and renewals

## What happens when a resident cancels

The cancellation is caught, not missed. Because your property is an interested party, your insurer notifies you when a resident cancels or lapses; the unit is flagged out of compliance and your team is alerted so you can prompt a reinstatement or send the QR link to re-enroll. Pair the tracking with a [tenant liability master program](https://insurancemonster.com/property-managers/tenant-liability-program/) and the unit also falls back to a covered floor while you follow up.

## Frequently asked questions

### How does renters insurance compliance tracking work?

Your property is listed as an interested party on residents' policies, so your insurer notifies you of any lapse, cancellation, or non-renewal. A live roster shows who is covered, at what limit, and through what date, and stores each resident's proof automatically.

### How do I get notified when a resident's coverage lapses?

Interested-party status means the insurer sends a notice on any material change, including a lapse or cancellation. On your roster the unit is flagged out of compliance and your team gets an alert, so you can prompt a reinstatement the same day.

### Can residents enroll if they are not covered?

Yes. An uncovered resident scans a property QR code and binds coverage in minutes - Plan 100 (100,000 dollar liability, 25 dollars per month) or Plan 250 (200,000 dollar liability, 35 dollars per month) - and lists your property as an interested party, so the unit returns to compliance automatically.

### Can I get a compliance report for owners?

Yes. You can export a compliance snapshot any time showing the percentage of units in compliance, each resident's limit and dates, and a log of lapses and reinstatements - suitable for owners, audits, and your own carrier at renewal.

### Does compliance tracking guarantee every unit is covered?

Tracking guarantees you know the status of every unit and are alerted the moment one falls out of compliance. To guarantee a covered floor even during a gap, pair it with a tenant liability master program so uncovered units fall back to that coverage.
