Personal Insurance

Renters Insurance, explained. 

Affordable protection for your stuff and your liability — your landlord’s policy doesn’t cover you.

What it is

Renters Insurance

Renters insurance covers your personal property inside a rental, your liability if someone is hurt at your place, and additional living expenses if your unit becomes uninhabitable after a covered loss.

Your landlord’s policy covers the building — not your belongings, not your liability. Renters insurance typically costs less than a streaming subscription and protects everything inside.

When this coverage pays off.

Theft from the apartment

A break-in takes your laptop, TV, and jewelry. Renters covers replacement.

Kitchen fire damages neighbors

Your liability pays for damage to a neighbor’s unit caused by your fire.

Temporary housing

A covered loss makes the unit uninhabitable. Loss-of-use pays for a short-term rental.

Common questions

Plain-language answers.

Is renters expensive?

No — most policies are $15–$30 per month and bundle with auto for further discounts.

Does it cover roommates?

Each roommate typically buys their own policy. Single policies usually only cover the named insured’s property.

Are valuables fully covered?

Standard limits on jewelry, art, and collectibles are low — we schedule those items for full coverage.
