MyChoice Voluntary Damage Protection is the ideal solution for property managers charging security deposits.  Foster peace of mind and guest satisfaction by offering the MyChoice voluntary damage protection with each stay.

Voluntary Damage Protection provides reimbursement to your protected guests for direct physical damage to covered real or personal property within the occupied rented unit during their stay.

The protection provides reimbursement for Unit Damages to items such as

  • The alterations, appliances, fixtures and improvements that are part of the unit rented by the guest such as cracked TV screen, broken chair leg, ripped upholstery, or wine spill on a cushion;
  • Additionally, Items of real property that pertain exclusively to the unit such as marred flooring or damaged dry wall.

How It Works

The insured guest simply reports unit contents damages to the Property Management staff by the scheduled check-out date.  If they loose any portion of their security deposit due to the damages, the process is easy: they just call the claims unit or fill out the online claims form.  Guests receive direct reimbursement for approved claims.
