Renters Insurance

What’s the Purpose of Renters Insurance?

If you’re a renter, having renters’ insurance is one of the best decisions you can make. Several companies require their tenants to have a policy in place before signing the lease. While you can have a policy for years and not have to use it, knowing it’s there in the event you do makes all the difference. Our team at Allegiant Insurance Services can help you find a reliable renter’s policy in California.

What exactly is Renters Insurance?

Think of it as a homeowner’s insurance policy, but for renters that apply when you are leasing a home, condo, apartment, or living space. While it doesn’t cover the structure, it does provide for your personal belongings, and it’s much cheaper than homeowners’ insurance.

What does Renters Insurance Cover?

In most cases, this type of policy covers personal property damage, personal liability, additional living expenses, and limited medical payments. The covered perils will vary based on state, but floods and earthquakes require additional policy coverage, especially in California.

What else is excluded from Renters Insurance Coverage?

The standard coverage does not offer protection from everything. In addition to earthquakes and flooding, there are certain stipulations such as dangerous dog breeds or high-ticket items that will pose a problem. Additionally, maintenance issues such as pests or bed bugs may not be covered and are the responsibility of your leasing agent. Finally, it is important to note that cars are not covered under renter’s insurance and require a separate auto policy.
