Do I Need Renters Insurance?
Renters sometimes assume the owner of the property they are renting will cover their damages after a fire, theft, or a disaster. In reality, the owner’s insurance protects the structure of the building, but if you’re the renter, you’re responsible for protecting your belongings, as well as the safety of you and your guests. Renters insurance can also provide coverage if you aren't able to live in your home after a major loss in Chicago, or the northern suburbs.
Your renters insurance policy may cover your personal belongings such as:
- televisions
- clothes
- furniture
- kitchenware
If you add up all of your personal property, you might be surprised at how much it would cost to replace. Renters insurance isn't very expensive and
you may be eligible for a discount on a renters insurance policy if the place you rent includes:
· Alarm systems
· Sprinkler systems
· Smoke detectors
· Deadbolt locks
