A rent collateral is a transaction in which a party wishing to acquire a property to rent it in retail (ie, night or weekly), usually a property manager or a vacation rental manager, the rent of the property owner is a big block of time, several months or even years. Through a transaction, the acquirer provides the property owner with a guaranteed amount during the term of the contract. The acquirer then has the right to lease the property in question in retail, keeping all related revenues. This transaction is popular with parties seeking to transfer risk and/or management expenses associated with leasing property. Such transactions are similar to the rents arrangements that are more commonly used by property developers.

Benefits and risks of wholesale rentals
Property owner
Through wholesale contracts, the property owner may receive a guaranteed amount during the term of the contract. It takes risks of trying to rent the property itself, often with financial discounts. Depending on how the contract is structured, the property owner can also shift more or less cost, maintenance, repairs, and other property owner's responsibilities to the acquirer during the term of the contract. One potential downside is that by selling the right to rent to a third party, the homeowner loses control of how the property is managed during that time period, although this is also negotiable and agreed upon in the contract.
Property manager
Through wholesale contracts, property managers can acquire new inventory to be managed in retail, increasing revenue. When obtained at the right price, the contract can also increase the profit margin. By buying weeks during that time period, managers have increased control over how property is managed. One potential downside is an increased risk of providing collateral - if the property is not rented and predicted in the retail market, the manager is still obliged to pay the property owner an agreed amount.

Bilateral contract
Wholesale rentals can be negotiated directly between the homeowner and the property manager. Such contracts can be good where the parties trust each other, and the amount is easy to agree on.
Marketplace
Property owners and property managers can also reach terms through wholesale rental markets. Through such a market, property managers compete with each other, bargain for the offered price and ultimately pay it to the property owner. By creating market-derived prices for property lease weeks, such markets often make it quick and easy for property owners and property managers to reach deals and sign wholesale lease contracts.
