Whether you’re renting your first apartment, sharing a place with roommates, or settling into a new home, the belongings you’ve collected along the way matter. Your personal belongings and the memories they hold deserve reliable protection.
Renters insurance is a smart, affordable way to safeguard what matters most and give you peace of mind. With protection for your property and liability, you can feel confident that you’re covered from life’s unexpected events, no matter where you call home.

What renters insurance excludes
Understanding what your renters insurance doesn’t cover is just as important as knowing what it does. Exclusions can be surprising to many renters, so it’s smart to review your policy in detail and ask questions if you’re unsure. Most policies exclude certain situations, including:
-
- Damage from floods or earthquakes, which means you may need a separate policy if you live in an area prone to these natural disasters.
- Your roommate’s personal belongings, so it’s important to make sure each tenant has their own coverage if needed.
- Any intentional damage, which refers to harm caused deliberately rather than by accident.
How much does renters insurance cost?
Several factors affect your renters insurance premium, including where you live, the amount of coverage you choose, and any additional endorsements for valuable items. If you live in a city, rates are usually higher than in rural areas, and extra protection for valuables can increase your costs. However, renters insurance is generally very affordable and provides valuable coverage for a modest price.
