Renters Insurance

Affordable protection for your belongings and liability

Renters insurance protects your personal property inside a rented home or apartment and provides personal liability coverage if someone is injured while visiting. It's one of the most underutilized products in insurance — and one of the best values at often under $20/month.

Average Cost
$15 – $25 per month
Typical Coverage
$30,000 personal property
Liability
$100,000 standard
Key Fact
Your landlord's policy does NOT cover your belongings

What's Covered

What this policy covers

  • Personal property — furniture, electronics, clothing, and valuables
  • Loss of use — temporary housing costs if your rental becomes uninhabitable
  • Personal liability — legal costs if someone sues you for an injury
  • Medical payments to others — minor guest injuries
  • Off-premises theft — belongings stolen from your car or while traveling

Who Needs It

Is this the right coverage for you?

  • Anyone who rents an apartment, condo, or house
  • College students living off campus
  • Anyone with valuable electronics, instruments, or jewelry
  • Renters whose landlord requires it (increasingly common in lease agreements)

FAQ

Common questions about Renters

My landlord has insurance. Why do I need my own?

Your landlord's policy covers the building structure, not your belongings. If there's a fire, their policy doesn't replace your furniture, laptop, or clothes. Renters insurance exists specifically to fill that gap.

Does renters insurance cover roommates?

Typically no — each roommate needs their own policy, or your roommate needs to be specifically added to yours. Check with us to confirm your policy's terms.
