Renters, You Need Insurance, Too!

Did you know? According to a survey by Apartments.com, 58% of renters don’t purchase tenant insurance, often due to misconceptions about its cost or existence. However, the average price for a policy covering $20,000 in personal property and $500,000 in personal liability is approximately only $200 a year, making it an affordable option for protecting your belongings and financial security.

Changing “Garaging?” Don’t Delay In Telling Your Agent

The location where your vehicle is primarily parked overnight is termed the “garaging location”. If the garaging location changes, your auto insurance policy states that you are required to notify the insurance company immediately. There is no grace period for notification; therefore, it’s a good idea to let your agent know in advance when a garaging change will occur.
