Natalie Mckinstry

I appreciate having been given the option of paying a small premium, up front, rather than providing a large deposit, to be held to the end of my lease.

I applied with an apartment complex that uses Rhino and was able to move within a week because of paying my deposit in payments instead of all at once.

How does security deposit insurance work?

Rhino's Security Deposit Insurance product replaces cash deposits with smart, affordable insurance. Renters pay Rhino a small fee (instead of a large cash deposit), and the policy secures the home for the property owner in case of damages or unpaid fees.

What does security deposit insurance cover?

Our policies secure your home for the property owner in case of any damages or unpaid amounts, such as unpaid rent. If a loss is incurred during the course of your lease, you will be responsible for reimbursing Rhino for the approved claim amount.

How much does a Rhino security deposit insurance policy cost?

Policies can start at as low as $4 a month, or some renters may pay upfront. Pricing is unique to each renter and is based on factors such as your security deposit amount, credit score, and more.

Am I eligible for Rhino?

Your credit score, required deposit amount, rental home’s location, and prior claims history with Rhino are examples of factors that may impact your eligibility, pricing, or payment options. Your individual deposit fulfillment option(s) are displayed after your Rhino application.

Do I get my payments back at the end of my lease?

Rhino replaces the need for a large security deposit and your payments are not refunded at the end of your lease. Rhino fulfills the same requirement as a deposit, but at a fraction of the cost.
