Renters Insurance
Renters insurance is designed to help address certain risks associated with renting a home or apartment, depending on the policy selected. While renters do not own the property itself, they may still have personal belongings and liability-related exposures to consider.
Renters insurance policies may include coverage for personal property and liability-related situations where you are found legally responsible for injury or property damage. Coverage options, limits, and exclusions vary by policy and carrier, and coverage may apply only to covered events as defined in the policy.
Many landlords require tenants to carry renters insurance, and a landlord’s insurance policy typically does not extend coverage to a tenant’s personal belongings. With a variety of coverage options available, understanding how renters insurance works can help you make informed decisions.
