What Does Renters Insurance Cover?
Renters insurance covers your personal property such as clothes, computers, electronics, furniture and more. If your property is damaged in a fire or stolen, renters insurance can be there to help you. The policy also covers your property when it is away from your home; for example, if your laptop is stolen or damaged due to a covered peril when you take it with you on vacation.
Renters insurance also covers your personal liability. If someone is injured while in your apartment or condominium you can be held liable. You may be responsible for medical bills and could be subject to a lawsuit.
If your apartment building is destroyed by a fire, you may need additional living expenses and renters insurance can provide that too. Your policy can pay for necessary increases in living expenses incurred so that your household can maintain its normal standard of living.
Your landlord may require renters insurance as part of your lease agreement.
