If you own a rental or investment property, you should make sure that you carry adequate rental property insurance coverage. Accidents may occur and ultimately cause damage to your investment property. If you do not have the necessary insurance, you will be responsible for the full financial cost.
Landlord insurance helps protect you financially from damages or injuries related to a rental property. Property owners should consider a landlord home insurance policy if they’re responsible for the entire building, including the exterior and roof. We can also help you find a landlord policy if you own a condo unit and rent it out. This is different from a landlord policy for a building homeowner, since you do not own the entire structure. Contact us today if you have further questions about determining the best type of property insurance or renters insurance for your needs.
Landlord insurance is not required by law, but most lenders will require it if you’re financing the property or have a mortgage on it. Remember, your homeowners insurance policy likely will not cover the home you’re renting out. That means any damage to the home, the belongings inside you own, or lawsuits against you will not be covered unless you get landlord insurance. Insurers usually don’t cover eviction costs. However, eviction insurance can be purchased separately from other companies.
Owning an investment property brings with it a large degree of liability. In addition to the building itself, you may be responsible for injuries received by others while they are on your property. You could also be held responsible for damage to their belongings.
Types of Properties Include:
- Commercial Property
- Vacant Property & Land
- Rental Home
