Best way to track tenant renters insurance at scale? (AppFolio)
We manage a large number of single-family rentals and use AppFolio. One ongoing pain point is tracking which tenants currently have renters insurance and which do not, especially when policies lapse mid-lease.
Right now:
• Tenants are required to carry renters insurance per the lease
• Some upload proof at move-in, some don’t
• Policies expire, cancel, or change carriers
• At scale, manual follow-ups are becoming unmanageable
For those managing a large portfolio:
• How are you tracking renters insurance compliance long-term?
• Are you using AppFolio tools, third-party integrations, or forced-placed options?
• Has anyone successfully automated lapse notifications?
