Liability Insurance requirements and options:

The Landlord requires Tenant to obtain liability coverage of at least $100,000 in property damage and legal liability from an A-rated carrier and to maintain such coverage throughout the entire term of the lease agreement. Tenant is required to furnish Landlord evidence of the required insurance prior to occupancy, at the time of each lease renewal period, and upon request. 

To satisfy the insurance requirement, Resident may either (1) be automatically enrolled into a policy that satisfies the coverage requirements as part of the Resident Benefits Package; or (2) obtain alternative liability coverage from an insurer of Resident's choice. The option Resident chooses will not affect whether Resident's lease application is approved or the terms of Resident's Lease. 

• Option 1: Master Policy (Automatic Enrollment): Do nothing. The Resident will be automatically enrolled into an insurance policy as part of the Resident Benefits Package. No further action is required. Coverage will begin on the effective date of Resident's lease and continue throughout the lease term. Please refer to the evidence of insurance that is supplied by AG Homes for additional coverage details. 
• Option 2: Resident Policy (Policy Verification Required): Buy a policy. If Resident prefers, Resident may find, purchase, and maintain another policy that satisfies the Landlord’s requirements. The Resident Benefits Package monthly amount will be adjusted accordingly. Visit http://insurance.residentforms.com/ and follow the instructions listed there to provide evidence of the required insurance coverage to your Landlord. The Resident Benefits Package monthly rate will be adjusted by the premium amount in the policy.

Please be sure that your policy meets the following criteria prior to submitting:

1. Policy is purchased from an A-rated carrier
2. Policy meets or exceeds the required $100,000 in property damage and personal liability
3. AG Homes is listed as additional interest
4. AG Homes address is listed as: PO Box 660121 Dallas, TX 75266
5. Include insurancesupport@secondnature.com as Additional Interest

It is Resident's responsibility to pay premiums directly to your insurance provider. If the policy is terminated or lapses, Resident will be subject to a RBP violation fee of $25 and agrees to be subsequently enrolled into the policy referenced in Option 1 above. 

NOTE: The total monthly cost of the Resident Benefits Package is all-inclusive, and no discounts will be given if any element of the package is unavailable due to a lack of HVAC or another limitation at a specific property. All services are subject to the terms and conditions of the Resident Benefits Package Lease Addendum.

In addition to monthly rent, a security deposit will charged to prior to tenancy. This Damage or Security Deposit shall secure the performance of Resident's obligations to pay rent and leave the Premises in good, clean, and operating condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted.  See lease for further details.

Alternatively, you may rent deposit-free through Obligo. Obligo has several methods to qualify for deposit-free living and charges a small fee for the services.  You're still accountable and maintain the right to dispute charges - just like a traditional deposit.

100% of our rental units are smoke free. Residents who have a lease terminated for smoking may forfeit all security deposits.

• Failure to meet screening criteria may be grounds for the following: (1) denial of application, (2) requirement of co-signer and/or increased security deposits.
• An approved application does not take the property off of the market and does not prevent other prospective tenants from applying and being approved for the same property. A hold deposit or entire deposit will be required to be paid and cleared in order for the property to be taken off of the market.
• Properties are accepted in an “As Is” condition. Please do not assume any further alterations, cleaning, or other changes will be done to the property before moving in outside of necessary repairs as deemed by AG Homes, Inc.
