Tenant Insurance
When you are renting a house or apartment, your landlord will most likely have an insurance policy for the building. So why do you need insurance? Because you need to protect your belongings and make certain you have liability insurance.
To purchase tenant insurance, your broker may ask you to complete a worksheet to record your belongings. This will help the broker ensure you have enough protection to replace all of your belongings in the event of a loss.
There are different package policies available. Every package will include:
- Personal liability insurance to a maximum limit, in case you are found legally at fault for injury to another person or damage to their property.
- Damage to your own property due to emergency or destruction.
- Increased living expenses or lost rental income following an insured loss.
- Replacement cost coverage for your belongings
- Protection of your belongings from:
- All Risk Coverage
- Named Perils
Additional options can include:
- Seniors package policies for people over the age of 60 in a special care home, nursing home or seniors’ complex
- Coverage for belongings when outside of the home
- Coverage for accidents within the home
- Identify theft coverage
- Increased limits coverage
- Glass deductible buydown
- Sewer backup coverage
- Voluntary fire fighting coverage
- Watercraft coverage

Extra coverage is required for special items, such as jewelry, fine art, coin and stamp collections, musical instruments, bicycles and furs.
