Renters Insurance

Renters Insurance Built Around You

Your landlord's insurance covers the building — not your stuff. Renters insurance protects your personal belongings, covers personal liability, and pays for a hotel if your apartment becomes uninhabitable. And it's probably cheaper than you think.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does renters insurance cost?

Most renters pay between $15 and $30 per month for a standard renters insurance policy, depending on how much personal property coverage you need and your liability limits. Adding a high-value items endorsement for expensive electronics or jewelry may increase the premium slightly.

Does renters insurance cover theft?

Yes. Renters insurance covers theft of your personal belongings — including theft from your car (the items inside, not the car itself) and even theft that occurs while you're traveling. Always file a police report when making a theft claim.

Does my landlord's insurance cover my belongings?

No. Your landlord's insurance covers the building structure and protects the landlord from liability. Your personal belongings — furniture, electronics, clothing, appliances you own — are not covered by your landlord's policy under any circumstances.

Does renters insurance cover water damage?

Renters insurance typically covers sudden and accidental water damage, such as a burst pipe or an overflowing appliance. It does not cover flooding from an external source. If you live in a flood-prone area, you may want to consider a separate flood insurance policy.

Can my landlord require renters insurance?

In many states, landlords are permitted to require tenants to carry renters insurance as a condition of the lease, though rules vary — check your lease and local landlord-tenant law. Even if your landlord doesn't require it, carrying renters insurance protects you from out-of-pocket costs after a fire, theft, or liability claim.
