Residing in a rental property doesn't mean you should skimp on insurance protection. While your landlord may have insurance, it typically covers only the building, not your personal belongings inside. Valley West Insurance offers comprehensive renters’ insurance to protect your possessions and provide liability coverage.
Renters insurance offers protection against potential losses to your personal property due to a variety of events, ranging from theft and vandalism to certain natural disasters. It also gives you liability coverage in case someone gets injured within your rental residence, or you inadvertently damage someone else's property.
Many landlords require that tenants have renters’ insurance as part of the lease agreement. This ensures the protection of the tenant’s personal belongings and provides liability coverage, offering protection to both parties.
If you're a college student living in a dorm or off-campus housing, renters’ insurance can provide much-needed protection for your personal items like electronics, books, and furniture, which are not covered by the college's or university's insurance policy.
It's important to know that your landlord's insurance policy typically covers the structural integrity of the building, not your personal belongings within. That's where renters’ insurance comes in, offering protection for your personal property, liability coverage, and even potential living expenses if your rental unit becomes uninhabitable.
