Frequently asked question

I don't own many valuables; why do I need renter's insurance?

Even without high-value items, the combined cost of replacing everyday belongings like clothing, electronics, and furniture can be significant after a theft or fire. Furthermore, its crucial liability protection safeguards you from costly lawsuits if a guest is injured in your home.

What does ``temporary housing`` or ``displacement`` coverage include?

This coverage, often called “loss of use,” pays for additional living expenses if your rental becomes uninhabitable. This includes hotel bills, restaurant meals, and other costs incurred while your home is being repaired after a covered event like a fire.

Does my landlord's insurance cover my personal belongings?

No. Your landlord’s insurance only covers the physical building structure (walls, roof, appliances they provide). It does not cover the loss of your personal possessions, your liability, or your additional living expenses, which is why your own policy is essential.

Is renter's insurance actually affordable?

Yes, renter’s insurance is one of the most affordable types of coverage available. For just a few dollars a month, you can secure extensive protection for your belongings and liability, making it a highly cost-effective step for securing your financial well-being.
