While a Homeowners policy or a landlord’s policy protects the dwelling and the items belonging to the landlord, the renter is responsible to insure their own contents in order to recover in an event of a loss.  Get a peace of mind when it comes to you and your stuff!  Knowing what is and isn’t covered is key.

Coverages:

A basic renters policy consists of 4 components (C-F); which are:

C – Contents – contents coverage limits from $15,000 to $500,000.

A standard policy covers your contents for Actual Cash Value (ACV) a depreciated amount.  We suggest everyone add Replacement Cost which will pay for the replacement of nearly all damaged items with brand new pieces.

D – Loss of Use – Additional living expenses occurred if you’re unable to live in your apartment due to a

covered loss.

E – Personal Liability – Protects you if someone brings a claim or lawsuit against you for injury or loss of

personal property.

F – Medical Payments- provides payments to others in an event of minor injury without determining

fault; coverage options $1,000, $2,500, or $5,000. 

Deductible choices:  $500 or $1,000.
