Insurance shouldn’t slow down your closing.

Rental property insurance is required to close, but it’s often one of the most frustrating steps in the process. Slow responses. Typos in policy documents. Coverage that doesn’t match lender requirements. Last-minute surprises.

And it’s not just frustrating for you - it frustrates your lender, too. When policies need revisions or don’t meet guidelines, closings get delayed.

Waltz now makes it easier to secure rental property insurance as part of your financing journey, so you can stay compliant, keep your lender happy, and close with confidence

What rental property insurance covers (and why it matters)

Rental property insurance, often referred to as Homeowners Insurance (HOI) for investment properties or landlord insurance, helps protect income-producing properties in ways standard owner-occupied policies usually don’t. A strong policy typically includes dwelling coverage that protects the structure against events like fire, storms, and vandalism. It also includes liability protection, which can cover legal and medical expenses if a tenant or visitor is injured on the property. Many policies also cover loss of rental income, reimbursing lost rent if the property becomes uninhabitable due to a covered incident.

It’s not just a lender checkbox. It’s a smart way to reduce risk, protect returns, and invest with confidence.
