FlexDeposit
Lower resident move-in costs and decrease bad debt at the same time
The Only Risk-Based Surety Bond with Integrated Collections
Mitigating financial risk is vital for property management companies, but, as residents consistently prioritize lower move-in costs, traditional security deposits aren’t hitting the mark for both parties. That’s why Assurant offers FlexDeposit®, a risk-based surety bond with integrated collections. With FlexDeposit, you’ll be able to lower your exposure to risk and bad debt while also lowering move-in costs for your residents. Residents pay a fraction of the traditional deposit cost at move-in while you retain all the coverage security deposits offer plus dedicated ACA-professionals to collect any overages after residents move out.

What FlexDeposit Clients Say About the Product
“FlexDeposit® allowed us to reach a broader segment of our market and we found it to be cost-effective for us and our residents. We’ve also had higher occupancy and it’s served as a deterrent that’s kept many residents from breaking their lease agreements.”
-S. Epps, Fat Property
“Bad debt was making it difficult to lower move in costs and remain competitive. We needed to increase occupancy without decreasing our deposits. FlexDeposit® reduced our bad debt, increased occupancy and reduced risk by allowing us to keep our deposits higher while keeping resident costs low. Combined with Assurant’s claim payments, it’s boosted our bottom line. We’ve had a great partnership.”
-C. Marx, Rincon Partners
"Our deposit amounts weren’t covering damages left by residents after move-out. But, if we increased the deposit, we would have a difficult time with new move-ins. We needed a solution that would remain affordable for the resident. Since implementing FlexDeposit®, we’re enjoying the partnership and are happy with the results.”
-M. Aguilar, Tropicana Properties
