Why Should You Get Renter’s Insurance? 

Essentially, renter’s insurance covers your personal belongings (i.e. electronics, furniture, clothing, etc.) in case of emergencies such as break-ins, natural disasters, fires, and water damage. Let’s face it – life happens and the best thing you can do is be prepared for unplanned emergencies. Here are just a few of the benefits of having renter’s insurance:

Affordable peace of mind. For as low as $10 a month, renter’s insurance gives you peace of mind, knowing your belongings are protected from theft, fire, or damages. There are different plans you can choose from, making it adjustable to your budget. Plus, if you choose the annual plan, you can save up to $50 compared to monthly payments!

Flexible and hassle-free. Policies are year-long, allowing you the flexibility to renew annually without any strings attached. You’re in control of your insurance options, making it easy to find a plan that suits your needs.

Protection in emergencies. Living in Tallahassee, unexpected hurricanes and tornadoes can pose risks to your belongings. Without insurance, if disaster strikes, the rental home or apartment complex isn’t responsible for your items. While repairs and replacements for damages to the home are covered, your personal belongings are not. Renter’s insurance ensures the protection of your items in case of emergencies!

Pro tip: To make the claims process smoother, we recommend photographing your important belongings when you move in. This helps provide proof of ownership if you need to file a claim, making it easier for the insurance provider to compensate or replace your items.

Your choice of providers. While we have a recommended insurance provider, you’re free to choose whoever you feel comfortable with. The key is ensuring your belongings are fully protected. 

Why Wait?

College life is full of excitement and new experiences, and the last thing you want to worry about is the safety of your possessions. With affordable options, renter’s insurance is a smart choice to safeguard your belongings. Don’t leave your items unprotected—consider getting renter’s insurance today and enjoy college life with confidence!
