Hey, product looks awesome, something I would put time into:

Large landlords: They often mandate specific coverage, and will cross sell & promote you into their tennant email/welcome kits.

EQR requires something like 100K of liability in the bay area, gives you 30 days from lease effective or so to secure a policy or they auto enroll you in a $10/Mo from another vendor.

Thanks! And yes, great idea. So far we've been seeing a lot of landlord-provided policies, and we beat them by wide margins. By pitching ease of use and great coverage for the minimum possible tax on their tenants I hope will be a win!
