Keep Your Stuff Safe

Your landlord’s insurance policy covers the building, but not your personal things. Renters insurance helps protect you and your belongings if the unexpected happens.

A renters insurance policy may also pay for medical bills if someone is injured at your place.

Personal Property

Coverage for items such as clothing, electronics, furniture, tools, and appliances you own

Injuries

If you host a party and one of your guests slips and falls, you could be liable to pay expenses

Loss of Use

May help pay for lodging and groceries if you can't stay at your place due to a covered loss
