HOW THE R2R PROGRAM WORKS
Enrollment takes just five minutes. Start here to:
1. Sync your property management software (PMS) to the Right to Rent Program to automatically donate $2/reservation post checkout
2. Choose how you’d like to handle the donation:
- Pass it to guests
- Absorb it
- Split it
That’s it! We’ll receive just enough information to calculate and collect your donation on a monthly basis based on qualifying reservations, while you can rest easy knowing your contributions are working hard for you.
No minimum commitments. Start or stop at any time.
The R2R Program is not a charity. It’s an investment in market stability and peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions
How will I know where my contribution is going?
The Right to Rent Collaborative will share impact reports on R2RCollaborative.org and via email, so you can see the difference you’re making.
What information does R2R receive via the PMS-based R2R Program?
Property data and reservation data are transmitted, but only select fields are used to automatically calculate your monthly donation based on the checkout dates of applicable reservations: Property state, reservation amount, reservation creation date, and reservation checkout date.
How do I collect R2R Program donations on reservations?
We recommend rolling this into your existing per-reservation admin fees. If you prefer to list this as a separate line item, please use the fee name VR Stewardship Fund. See your specific PMS's instructions on how to add a fee.
What impact will my donation have?
70% of all donations will go directly to our grant program to establish and sustain local and state STR advocacy associations. 25% of donations support the administrative costs of managing R2RC and implementing its grant-making program. 5% of donations are held by R2RC as reserves for unexpected expenses.
With so much funding going directly to supporting operational expenses and capacity building of grassroots STR associations, members can expect to see the number of local and state associations grow, the size of associations’ memberships increase, and the public’s perception of short-term rentals shift with growing awareness and community engagement.
Are donations tax deductible?
The Right to Rent Collaborative is a 501(c)(6)-pending organization, so contributions may be deductible as business expenses. Consult a professional tax advisor.
As a member, how is R2RC protecting my data privacy?
R2RC is deeply committed to your data privacy. You can see our detailed policies and practices in our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
Why does Right to Rent sound familiar?
In 2021, the Right to Rent program was created by Scott Leggat and Inhabit and launched within the VRMA. In October 2024, the Right to Rent Collaborative (R2RC) spun out of the VRMA during its restructuring and reprioritization efforts. It is now an independent 501(c)(6) organization founded with the sole purpose of collecting and distributing advocacy funds on a broader scale. R2RC will expand the software-based Right to Rent Program and open other ways for all stakeholders to contribute, including homeowners, OTAs, vendors, and others.
The VRMA Advocacy Fund still exists and is still a grant source for people seeking funding for economic impact reports, lobbying, PR campaigns, and other needs. See vrmaadvocate.org for details.
