Westland Express, one of Canada's leading online tenant insurance providers, has partnered with BGO.
The collaboration integrates the Westland Express Ziptenant platform, offering a streamlined insurance solution that reduces administrative work for property managers and allows tenants to purchase and manage their coverage online.
The partnership offers several benefits to property managers, including real-time policy visibility, providing up-to-date information on tenants with active policies; comprehensive tenant coverage that auto-enrolls tenants at lease signing, ensuring immediate coverage; integration of insurance solutions directly into leasing and renewal workflows, enabling real-time compliance tracking and automated updates; and reduction of administrative burden, improving efficiency and minimizing the risk of compliance gaps.
By offering a digital-first experience, Westland Express streamlines the process of securing tenant insurance, eliminating the need for manual tracking. Property managers can focus on other priorities, while tenants benefit from a straightforward insurance process.
This partnership strengthens Westland Express’ position as a trusted partner for property managers and REITs across Canada, providing tailored solutions that enhance operational efficiency, ensure tenant compliance, and generate additional revenue streams.
“We’re thrilled about this partnership because it means property managers at BGO can now enjoy a seamless, digital-first insurance experience, said James Malcolm, vice president of Westland Express.
“Our integration with Yardi through the Express Ziptenant platform significantly enhances operational efficiency for property managers while empowering tenants to secure insurance quickly and conveniently.”
Westland Express was introduced in 2022 following Westland Insurance’s acquisition of ZipSure Insurance Brokers and Nuera Insurance. The platform includes products for tenant, home, condo, pet and travel insurance.
