Fees are based on the risk category, the renter's financial situation and nationality — US citizens pay 5%-7% of the annual rent while noncitizens pay 7%-10%. Once the landlord confirms the lease details, renters have to sign a Lease Rental Bond backed by Hanover, and the landlord then secures the property for the renter. Landlords can log into a dashboard on the platform for an overview of their rental activity, and can easily check when tenants' policies are expiring, and how far along each application is.
