    • Beware of scams: Stick to reputable and recognized insurance providers, and double-check the platform’s security features and online reviews before making a purchase.

    • Read the fine print: Understand your policy’s coverage limitations, exclusions, and terms & conditions to avoid unexpected surprises in the future.

    What is Tenant Insurance?

    Tenant insurance, sometimes referred to as renter’s insurance, is a type of insurance policy specifically designed for renters living in a rented property (such as an apartment, condo, or house). It protects renters from financial losses due to unexpected events like theft, fire, water damage, or liability claims from accidents.

    Tenant insurance typically covers:

    • Personal property: reimbursement for lost, damaged, or stolen belongings.

    • Liability coverage: protection in case you’re found legally responsible for injuries to others or damage to their property.

    • Additional living expenses: coverage for increased costs of living if you need to move out temporarily due to damage or remediation.
