<p></p> <p>We are pleased to announce that we are offering a “Lease Guaranty Program” for Brigham and Women’s Hospital Research Fellows. </p> <p></p> <p></p> <p>Through the Lease Guaranty Program, BWH will guaranty payment to a landlord under specified circumstances. The Lease Guaranty program does not provide cash or money in any form. The benefit of this program is that instead of a trainee providing an advanced payment, a landlord will accept the Lease Guaranty document and its conditions. In return, a Research Fellow <strong>agrees to reimburse BWH </strong>for any payment BWH is required to make under the Guaranty.</p> <p></p> <p></p> <p>The Guaranty has been accepted in the past by these <a href="https://www.massgeneralbrigham.org/content/dam/mgb-global/en/medical-education-and-training/graduate-medical-education/documents/list-of-landlords.pdf"><strong>properties listed</strong></a> in the Boston area. We are optimistic that the terms of this Guaranty will be acceptable to many other landlords as well.</p> <p></p> <p></p> <p>Eligible Research Fellows may offer the Guaranty to<strong> any landlord they wish</strong>. If a landlord accepts the terms, a landlord is eligible to participate.</p> <p></p> <p></p> <p><em>DISCLAIMER: The list of landlords simply represents organizations that have participated in the Lease Guaranty program.

BWH will not become involved in negotiations with the Tenant and the Landlord. In general, payments to a Landlord will be made on demand (without any evaluation as to the validity of the claim) since the guaranty serves in lieu of funds that would otherwise be held by the Landlord. <br /><strong>Payments made by BWH under the guaranty will be deducted from the Research Fellow’s paycheck</strong>.</li> <li>The term of the Lease Guaranty is for one year with annual renewal rights. The Lease Guaranty document needs to be re-executed every year that the Research Fellow wishes to participate in the program. If the Lease Guaranty document is not renewed with BWH and the Landlord annually, the Guaranty no longer is valid.</li> <li>The Lease Guaranty document becomes null and void if a Research Fellow is no longer appointed at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and/or no longer has the “Research Fellow” title.</li> <li>If dates and/or cost of rent were changed since the Lease Guaranty documents had been signed, a landlord must notify the BWH Professional Staff Benefits Office via email: <a href="mailto:BWHProfStaffBene@partners.org">BWHProfStaffBene@partners.org</a>.</li> </ul> </li> </ul></div> </div> <div class="elementor-toggle-item"> <div id="elementor-tab-title-3884" class="elementor-tab-title" data-tab="4" role="button" aria-controls="elementor-tab-content-3884" aria-expanded="false"> <span class="elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left" aria-hidden="true"> <span class="elementor-toggle-icon-closed"><i class="fas fa-caret-right"></i></span> <span class="elementor-toggle-icon-opened"><i class="elementor-toggle-icon-opened fas fa-caret-up"></i></span> </span> <a class="elementor-toggle-title" tabindex="0">Participating Landlords</a> </div> <div id="elementor-tab-content-3884" class="elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix" data-tab="4" role="region" aria-labelledby="elementor-tab-title-3884"><p><a href="https://www.massgeneralbrigham.org/content/dam/mgb-global/en/medical-education-and-training/graduate-medical-education/documents/list-of-landlords.pdf">List of landlords</a> who currently participate in the Lease Guaranty Program.

Am I eligible?</strong></p> <p>Yes.</p> <h6><strong>Reminders:</strong></h6> <p><strong>Premises Field:</strong></p> <p>The “Premises” field on all documents must include the full address including its zip code and city/town.</p> <p><strong>Brokers’ Fees:</strong></p> <p>The Lease Guaranty Program does not cover brokers’ fees. In some instances (for example, off-season) the brokers’ fees or a part of them may be covered by your landlord. There is no requirement that your landlord will chose to offer to share the cost. Please make sure you negotiate or inquire about the brokers’ fees prior to choosing an apartment. The list of participating landlords was developed for the participants to avoid additional fees beyond the brokers’ fees.</p> <p><strong>Sharing the Lease:</strong></p> <p>If two or more tenants are eligible for the program, the program requires only one name of a responsible Resident/Fellow on the document. The Lease Guaranty cap is calculated per apartment; therefore, the cap will be $7,000 even if two eligible participants share the apartment.</p> <p><strong>Dates on the Lease:</strong></p> <p>Please note, the Lease Guaranty is only valid for 1 year with the limited liability of $7,000.</p> <p>Each lease must have its start date and the end date within a year.</p> <p>For example,</p> <ul> <li style="list-style-type: none;"> <ul> <li>The lease starts on 03/19/2023 and ends on 03/18/2024; or</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <ul> <li style="list-style-type: none;"> <ul> <li>The lease starts on 03/19/2023 and will end any time before 03/18/2024.</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p>Kindly input the date in the following sentence in the required paperwork:<em> “EXECUTED as a sealed instrument by the parties hereto as their duly authorized acts by their duly authorized representatives as of this ______this day of ________, 20xx.</em></p> <p>You must resubmit paperwork for each lease even if it is a renewal, i.e. completed Indemnity, Guaranty and Procedure forms.</p> <p><strong>Corrections and Changes:</strong></p> <p>A landlord must notify all the parties of any changes including the lease start and end dates and the monthly rent. Date and initial the change. The modified documents must be emailed to the <a href="mailto:BWHProfStaffBene@partners.org">BWHProfStaffBene@partners.org</a> inbox.</p> <p><strong>Clarification on Cash:</strong></p> <p>The Lease Guaranty program does not provide cash or money in any form. The benefit of this program is that a landlord collects no advance payment from a trainee of any kind and accepts the Lease Guaranty document and its conditions instead.</p> <p>All disputes are resolved through the BWH Lease office which guarantees payment to the landlord. As a rule, the landlord has his own contract/lease with an applicant in addition to the Lease Guaranty program.</p></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> </div> </div>
