Most leases require renters insurance, but enforcement is where it falls apart. Tenants forget, buy a policy once and let it lapse, or send a screenshot that's impossible to verify. Months later there's water damage and no coverage, and the loss lands on the owner. This playbook shows how to make renters insurance a built-in part of move-in instead of a rule nobody follows.
The requirement is in the lease, but the workflow to satisfy it is left entirely to the tenant. They have to find a company, buy a policy, add your entity as an interested party, and send proof — all while juggling a move. Predictably, things slip:
You can't manage what you can't see, and most teams have no real-time view of who's actually covered.
You don't need a license and your leasing staff don't quote or bind anything. As a , you simply make getting covered the easy default during lease signing. Truvo is an AI-native brokerage that quotes and binds renters insurance in minutes and delivers proof of coverage you can put on file immediately.

Two ways to run it:
Approach | What your team does | Best for |
|---|---|---|
Refer | Hand the tenant a partner link during signing | Single properties or small portfolios |
Embed | Add an insurance step inside your leasing or tenant portal | Large portfolios and PM software stacks |
Either way the tenant gets a real, bindable policy, you get verifiable proof of coverage, and you earn a referral reward when the policy binds.
At lease signing, as a required step to get the keys — not as a reminder email after move-in.
Treat proof of coverage like a signed lease or a paid deposit: a condition of move-in, not an afterthought. When you bake it into signing, compliance stops being something you chase and becomes something you collect.
