The Benefits of Allowing Pets

While it might give you heartburn, there are many real estate investors, like you, who are successfully renting out their properties to tenants with pets without much fuss or struggle. Here are some benefits that come with opening up to furry friends -- and their owners.

Benefit 1: Great Potential for Higher Rental Income and Returns

A 2011 study of the condominium market in the Journal of Real Estate Finance and Economics found that landlords who placed no restrictions on pet ownership were able to enjoy an 11.6 percent rental premium over landlords who did not allow pets.

Benefit 2: Longer Tenancies

Landlords who allow pets often enjoy average longer tenancies from their renters. Tenants with pets were found to stay longer than tenants without pets by an average of 46 months, according to a 2005 Firepaw study. This is despite a higher rent being collected for the property and proves that people will be loyal, stay, and pay when their pets are accommodated. A tenant who wants a pet will get one, even if that means they need to move.

Benefit 3: Larger Tenant Pool

The same study also found that the vacancy rate for pet-friendly housing was significantly lower than “no pets allowed” rentals. Our research shows owners also rented their properties faster, spending less than half the usual amount of time marketing pet-friendly accommodations. Pet-friendly housing receives 2X as many applications.

How does this Program work?

When a pet is approved, the tenant pays Pet Administrative Fees, Pet Deposits, and/or monthly Pet Fees each month to Aloe Property Management.
Aloe Property Management keeps those fees and uses them to cover our costs of administering the program and making repairs to your property if an approved pet causes damage. For example, if an approved pet in your property causes damage to a new carpet and $1,500 of new carpet needs to be replaced, we will replace the carpet at no cost to you!
This program covers up to $3,000 in damage above the tenant's deposit!
The program does not cover emotional support animals, companion animals, service animals or unapproved pets that the tenant concealed from us. However, we will try to recover the pet admin fees that the tenant was required to pay, and if recovered, we would then be able to cover the damage.
We allow a maximum of 4 pets.

The Fine Print

Pet Protection Guarantee. BROKER charges a monthly Pet Administrative Rent to the tenant per each approved animal (maximum of 3). This pet administrative rent is retained by BROKER. BROKER offers a guarantee that any damages caused to the home, above normal wear and tear, resulting from the approved animal(s) that is not covered by the security deposit will be reimbursed by BROKER to OWNER to make necessary repairs on behalf of the OWNER. This excludes any Service and Companion Animals per Fair Housing Guidelines. This Free Pet Protection Guarantee is limited to an amount of $3,000.00 per lease. Flooring replacement or repair is reimbursed on a depreciated basis. This guarantee only covers pets that BROKER has approved. This guarantee is not available if BROKER inherited the tenant or the pet. BROKER must have approved the pet through their pet screening process and signed the lease with the tenant. Any collection efforts under this provision become the sole responsibility and ownership of BROKER.

Property Management Language:

Pet Policy & Pet Damage Guarantee: Broker's policy is that all properties that we list are "pet friendly," unless a government entity or an HOA or COA with jurisdiction over the property has prohibited pets in their covenants or community rules. This is to ensure standardized policies and procedures for all properties within our brokerage. Broker provides a Pet Damage Guarantee to Owners, Broker collects Pet Fees from tenants in order to cover the cost of this guarantee. Tenant's security deposit will first be applied to any charges for pet damage prior to Broker covering any damage under this guarantee. The determination of what constitutes damage from a pet shall be made solely by Broker. In order to have repairs for pet damage paid by Broker under this guarantee, Owner must agree to use Broker's approved vendors for all rent-ready repairs, and property must still be managed by Broker at the time of the repairs. Assistance animals as defined by federal and state law (to include any animal that assists a tenant in any way with a legitimate disability) are not considered pets, cannot be denied even in an HOA/COA community that does not allow pets, are not subject to any pet fees, and therefore cannot be covered by the Pet Damage Guarantee. Owner does hereby agree to this policy. If owner terminates property management agreement during the term of the lease, the non refundable pet fee does not get sent to the Owner. The non refundable pet fee is a part of the Aloe Pet Guarantee program and belongs to Aloe Property Management. This guarantee is no longer valid if management is terminated. The Pet Damage Guarantee is not to exceed $3,000.00.
