High-level pitch of product
Renters get 15% of their rent back, landlords get responsible long term renters.
Product
Colibrin has developed a patent-pending "Renter Fund" technology which applies time-tested behavioral economic models, similar to credit card cash-back programs or airline points, to create a mutually beneficial outcome for both renters and their landlords. Renters that use Colibrin's "Renter Fund" can receive up to 15% of their cumulative rent payments back when they move out if they reside in a property for a minimum number of years. Landlords and real estate investors that use Colibrin's Renter Fund can receive higher than average returns since their properties will have lower vacancy rates, lower management fees, lower repair costs, and higher cash-flows -- resulting in a higher NOI.
