I’m Getting An Apartment. Do I Have to Get Renters Insurance?
There’s a lot to consider when you’re moving into an apartment. One of the things you should think about is whether to get renters insurance. At Trestle Insurance Agency Inc., servicing Evansville, IN, we can help you choose a renters insurance policy. Are you wondering whether renters insurance is right for you? Here’s what to consider.
Understanding Renters Insurance
Renters insurance is a type of insurance that pays to repair or replace your belongings if a covered event occurs. It is similar to home insurance but only protects your belongings—not the apartment where you live.
Renters insurance can also pay for your living expenses in the event that you have to move out while your apartment is being repaired after a covered event. Having renters insurance makes recovering from covered events more affordable and realistic for many people.
Is Renters Insurance Required?
Renters insurance is not required for most people. If your landlord requires you to have renters insurance, this information will be in your lease. Even if you don’t need renters insurance, there are still many benefits.
- Renters insurance can give you peace of mind when a covered event occurs.
- Renters insurance can make recovery after a covered event possible if you don’t have enough money to replace all of your belongings.
