“Multifamily operators are responding to COVID-19 with policies around resident support and preservation of occupancy. They are seeking ways to do the right thing for their residents during this time of crisis. We are doing everything we can to support our enterprise clients as they navigate the uncertainty created by COVID-19. As a way to assist and inform multifamily operators through the rapidly evolving COVID-19 landscape, we have initiated an ongoing COVID-19 Alerts program. Our most recent alert offered insights into rent relief resources and how other NMHC operators are implementing these resources for residents. We feel these alerts are an invaluable tool.” – Ed Wolff, CRO of LeaseLock.

“Our April rent payment data analysis showed that more operators are seeking to preserve occupancy by accepting more partial payments and working closely with residents to stay in their apartment homes. Adding Zero Deposit helps reduces total move-in costs and converts more prospects looking for new homes during this challenging time. All while providing over $5,000 in rent and damage loss protection to the property. It’s truly a win-win for both sides.” – Derek Merrill, CEO and cofounder of LeaseLock.
