Mistaken Assumptions You May Have
- Your landlord’s insurance covers your personal belongings…it doesn’t!
- Underestimating the cost of replacing all your belongings
- Your landlord’s insurance covers someone injured in your home…it doesn’t!
- Renters insurance costs a lot. It is typically less than $1.00 a day.
Fires are among the most devasting losses that can happen to an apartment dweller, but broken pipes, burglaries, and other situations can also cost money and cause stress. Unless you have renters insurance, your belongings aren’t covered, and neither is your personal liability. What if you caused a fire by accident that damaged other people’s property? You could be held liable and wouldn’t have any insurance to help protect you.
Getting Covered is Fast, Easy, and Affordable
For approximately $200 annually, you can have insurance that guarantees you’ll have money to replace everything you own and pay for extra housing expenses if needed. If you also carry auto insurance, you may receive a bundled discount and save up to 10%, which can offset some of the cost of obtaining renters insurance.
