Renters Insurance

Your landlord's policy covers the building. It doesn't cover anything you own inside it. Renters insurance picks that up, usually for less than a takeout order each month.

What it covers

What affects your rate.

Renters coverage is one of the cheapest policies there is. A few things shape the price:

How much your belongings are worth
Where you rent
Your claims history
The deductible you choose
Bundling renters with auto coverage

Questions we hear a lot

Do I really need renters insurance?

If you couldn't afford to replace everything you own tomorrow, yes. Many landlords require it now too.

How much does renters insurance cost?

Usually somewhere between 15 and 30 dollars a month. Bundled with auto, sometimes less. We'll quote it and you can see for yourself.

Does it cover my roommate's stuff?

No. A policy covers the people named on it. Roommates each need their own.

How much coverage should I get?

Walk through your place and add up what it would cost to replace everything. Most people land higher than they expect. We'll help you pick a number that fits.

Your stuff is worth protecting.

A few minutes now beats replacing everything out of pocket later.
