What is Renters Insurance?

Renters insurance protects your personal items from weather disasters, fires, and other damage. In extreme cases, renters insurance can also cover damage-related expenses, including hotel stays. Depending on your type of coverage, renters insurance can also provide liability insurance, which protects against injury or damage to another party's property.


While your landlord may have insurance, it's worth considering getting your own renters' insurance, as your landlord's insurance does not cover your personal belongings.


What Does Renters Insurance Not Cover?

  • Damage caused by floods, sinkholes, or earthquakes. (It's a good idea to inquire about the different natural disasters covered by your renters insurance, as not all plans are the same.)
  • Damage caused by infestations
  • Your roommate (unless they're included on your coverage plan).

What Other Types of Coverage Plans Can I Combine with Renters Insurance?

As we mentioned earlier, while renters insurance might not cover everything, it's a good starting point. For maximum protection, we'd recommend adding on additional coverage plans, such as umbrella insurance, which provides additional protection to your existing policies.
