Renter’s Insurance

Renter’s insurance is property insurance that provides coverage for a policyholder’s belongings, liabilities and possibly living expenses in case of a loss event. Renter’s insurance is available to persons renting or subletting a single family home, apartment, duplex, condo, studio, loft or townhome. The policy protects against losses to the tenant’s personal property within the rented property. In addition, a renter’s insurance policy protects against losses resulting from liability claims, such as injuries occurring on the premises that are not due to a structural problem with the property (in this case, the owner’s – not renter’s – policy would apply).
