What Renters Insurance Can Cover
- Personal property coverage for furniture, electronics, and clothing
- Liability protection if someone is injured in your rental unit
- Additional living expenses if your unit becomes unlivable after a covered loss
- Coverage for belongings damaged by fire, theft, or certain water damage
- Medical payments coverage for guests injured in your home
Why Your Landlord’s Policy Is Not Enough
A property owner’s insurance policy covers the structure itself, including the walls, roof, and building systems. It does not cover your personal belongings, and it does not protect you if a guest is injured inside your unit. Renters insurance fills both of those gaps.
Coverage for Apartments, Duplexes, and Shared Housing
Whether you live alone in an apartment, share a duplex with roommates, or rent a house, a renters policy can be tailored to your living situation. Roommates typically need separate policies, since a single policy usually only covers the belongings of the person named on it.
Common Renters Insurance Questions
Texas does not require it by law, but many landlords require proof of coverage as a lease condition.
It is often one of the more affordable policies available, since it does not need to cover the building itself.
Sudden and accidental water damage is often covered, but flooding requires a separate flood insurance policy.
Liability coverage generally applies to the policyholder, so each roommate typically needs their own policy for full protection.
