Protect Your Belongings, Protect Your Peace of Mind
Why Renter Insurance Matters
Landlord insurance covers the building, not your personal property.
Affordable monthly premiums safeguard thousands of dollars in belongings.
Coverage for theft, fire, water damage, and liability.
Cost & Benefits
Average premiums: $10–$25/month depending on coverage.
Discounts for bundling with auto or other policies.
Peace of mind for pennies a day.
What’s Covered
Personal property (furniture, electronics, clothing).
Liability protection (if someone is injured in your rental).
Additional living expenses (hotel, meals if your unit is uninhabitable).
Optional endorsements (jewelry, electronics, collectibles).
How Much Coverage Do I Need?
Most renters need $20,000–$50,000 in personal property coverage and at least $100,000–$300,000 in liability coverage.
How to Decide Your Coverage Amount
Inventory Your Belongings
Add up replacement costs for furniture, electronics, clothing, and valuables.
Example: If your belongings total $35,000, you’ll want at least that much in property coverage.
Evaluate Liability Risk
Do you host guests often?
Do you own pets?
Do you live in a building where damage could affect neighbors (e.g., water leaks)? These increase the need for higher liability coverage.
