    What Does Tenant Insurance Cover?

    1. Personal Belongings

    Tenant insurance covers your personal belongings against damage or loss caused by events such as fire, theft, or water damage. This coverage can include furniture, electronics, clothing, and other valuable possessions.

    2. Liability Coverage

    Tenant insurance also includes liability coverage, which protects you financially in case of accidental injuries to others or damage to the rental property. It can cover legal expenses and the cost incurred in repairing the damages.

    3. Additional Living Expenses

    If your rental unit becomes temporarily uninhabitable due to an insured event, tenant insurance can cover additional living expenses. This coverage can help you find alternative accommodations and cover expenses such as hotel stays or meals.
