Huddle

For landlords and property managers

Clear deposit terms. Less chasing at move-out.

HuddleBond connects the tenant’s obligation, consent, evidence, and claim process. Start with a small group and evaluate the operating value before expanding.

What changes for your team

One agreement to review

Keep parties, property, obligation, custody, and claim rights together. Both parties review the terms before commitment.

Evidence with the claim

Use the same record to explain a claim, review a response, and document the outcome. Local requirements and legal authority still apply.

Recognition for reliable tenants

Verified rent evidence can support a tenant’s HuddleBadge. Continue using your existing rent collection systems; confirm specific import or integration availability with Huddle.

Protection you can evaluate

The agreement must specify your claim rights, limits, evidence, and release conditions. A claim entitlement is not a guarantee that the recorded asset will cover a dollar loss. Confirm settlement currency and who bears any shortfall before adoption.

Do not assume insurance, a funded reserve, or appreciation participation. Any separately offered incentive requires explicit approved terms. The practical starting benefits are clearer administration and verified tenant history.

Review protection and risks

An invitation your tenant can understand

“You’re invited to review the deposit agreement for 14 Oak Street. Check the amount, how it is held, fees, and claim rules before deciding whether to proceed.”

Illustrative wording. An invitation is a request to review, not consent or confirmation that money has moved.

A claim path both sides can follow

Process overview, not a live claim. Deadlines and release conditions depend on the property, agreement, and applicable law.

  1. 01

    Lease ends

    Check the dates and notice requirements in your agreement and applicable local rules.

  2. 02

    Claim and evidence

    The landlord submits any claim and supporting evidence within the applicable claim window.

  3. 03

    Tenant response

    Both parties review the claim and supporting records. A disputed claim is not treated as consent.

  4. 04

    Release and resolution

    Amounts not in dispute and any disputed remainder follow the bond terms, required approvals, and applicable law. Courts and housing tribunals retain their authority.

  5. 05

    Settlement record

    Confirm the recipient, asset amount, and settlement status. A submitted request is not proof that funds arrived.

Check the property location first

Huddle is in pilot. HuddleBond deposit funding is not live, and Huddle is not accepting deposits yet.

HuddleBond eligibility review is limited to properties in Texas and Florida. Funding and settlement require transaction approval and an available service. A supported location alone is not approval to fund.

British Columbia is a records-only pilot. Huddle deposit records, deadlines, and dispute workflows are available there, but HuddleBond is not, and Huddle holds no funds in British Columbia.

Properties elsewhere cannot currently proceed with HuddleBond. Contact us about future availability; there is no promised launch date.

First three active bonds free

The first three active HuddleBonds per landlord organization have no bond platform charge. Additional active bonds are billed monthly at an approved rate disclosed before billing begins. Portfolio plans and any separate services require their own agreed terms.

Review pricing and fee responsibility

How a HuddleBond would be held (not live)

The HuddleBond deposit product is not live. Huddle is in pilot and is not accepting deposits. How a deposit would be held, including the asset, the custodian, and the risks, would be set out in the agreement before anyone funds.

You still fund the full agreed obligation. Huddle does not reduce the upfront deposit or guarantee its dollar value. Before funding, review the exact asset amount, custody arrangement, claim rights, fees, and release terms for your bond.

Platform fees are separate from bond principal.
