FAQ

Here is a list of common questions and answers related to renting with Roots

What happens to my deposit after I move out?

Your deposit will be levied against damages done to your unit as usual. You will have 3 options once you move out: 1. Withdraw all your money 2. Keep your money in the fund and allow it to continue to grow. 3. Keep part of your money in the fund and withdraw the rest. (Minimum of $100 must remain to retain your account)

How do I track my investment?

You can track your investment online through your investment portal which will be provided to you at the time of your move-in. We will also provide you with quarterly reports via email.

Can I lose money by investing my deposit in the Roots Fund?

Simple answer, no... Your deposit is not at risk due to the fund’s performance. No matter how the fund performs, Roots will never allow the value of your deposit to drop below its initial value. Any damages caused in the unit during your lease beyond normal wear and tear will be deducted from your Roots account following your move-out. At Roots, we are passionate about the “Live in it like you own it” program and the way it can help our residents build savings. We believe and hope that the program incentivizes you to take good care of your unit so that you can leave with more money than you moved in with!

How are rebates received?

All rent rebates/credits will be added to your investment in the form of shares. However, all of your quarterly distributions will be paid to you in cash; which you will have the option to receive in cash, or reinvest back into the fund.
