Rent Guarantee / Loss of Rent
Rent Guarantee / Loss of Rent Insurance protects property owners, landlords, and real estate organizations against financial losses resulting from tenant default, non-payment of rent, or lease-related income interruption.
Coverage is designed to help stabilize cash flow and protect revenue streams when tenants are unable or unwilling to meet rental payment obligations.
Coverage typically responds to lost rental income arising from tenant non-payment, eviction proceedings, abandonment, insolvency, or other covered lease default events affecting residential, commercial, or mixed-use properties.
Coverage may also include protection for:
Tenant default and non-payment: Coverage for lost rental income resulting from missed rent payments or lease breaches.
Eviction and legal expenses: Protection for legal costs associated with eviction proceedings, collections activity, and lease enforcement actions.
Vacancy and lease interruption exposures: Coverage for certain financial losses incurred while securing replacement tenants following covered default events.
Commercial and residential property portfolios: Protection designed for landlords, property managers, developers, and organizations managing single or multi-location property portfolios.
Cross-border and multinational property operations: Coverage may extend to international real estate portfolios where differing lease structures, tenant regulations, and local legal requirements create additional operational complexity.
For multinational organizations, coverage is often coordinated through a Controlled Master Program (CMP), such as the WMB Global Risks Global Master Program, with locally admitted policies where required to support coordinated coverage and regulatory compliance across jurisdictions.
Rent Guarantee Insurance is designed to help organizations protect rental income, maintain financial stability, and support operational continuity when tenant payment disruptions occur.
