Renters Insurance

If you rent your home or apartment, you need financial protection to help cover any losses that may occur if your personal property is damaged (due to fire, water from broken pipes, etc.) or stolen. Liability insurance (as well as other options) are also available depending on your needs. Landlords typically only purchase insurance to cover external structural repair/replacement and rely on tenants to insure personal property inside the unit via renters insurance. Our little policy does a lot for you - learn more about Renters Insurance today.

Renters Insurance

Renters insurance is similar to homeowners insurance in that it covers the cost of replacing personal property should it be damaged or stolen under the terms of the policy. It may also cover liability for unforeseen events like accidents (while others are visiting your rental home) and/or property damage (inadvertently caused by you, your family members, or pets) depending on the policy. It is best to get this coverage as soon as possible, once you have made the decision to rent a home or apartment.

What might be covered by Renters Insurance?

Although this list is not exhaustive, it provides some common elements of Renters Insurance coverage and a quick overview of each.

• Damaged or Stolen Property Replacement: This coverage can help protect you from financial losses resulting from the need to replace personal property due to damage or theft. Policies differ depending on carrier but generally offer depreciated actual value replacement (based on age of item) or full value replacement options.
• Alternate Housing: If you are unable to continue living in your rental home due to extensive damages, some policies will help cover a portion of the costs for alternative housing (up to the limits of the policy).
• Personal Liability Coverage: This coverage can help protect you should you be held financially responsible for injuries that a guest may sustain and/or property damage (inadvertently caused by you, your family or pets) up to the limits of the policy.
