Frequently asked questions
How much renters insurance do I need?
Inventory your belongings (electronics, furniture, clothing, etc.) and choose a personal property limit that covers replacement. Most renters need $20,000-$50,000 in personal property plus $100,000 in liability.
Does my landlord's insurance cover my stuff?
No. Your landlord's policy covers the building structure, not your belongings. If a fire, theft, or water damage destroys your possessions, you'll need your own renters policy to be reimbursed.
Will renters insurance cover my roommate?
Generally no -- each tenant should have their own policy. Some carriers allow roommates on a single policy if both are named, but it's cleaner (and usually similar cost) to have separate policies.
