Many renters are under the mistaken notion that their goods are protected by their landlord’s insurance. Truth is your landlord’s insurance protects his building and surrounding property, not your personal goods. To protect your personal goods, talk to an agent from InsureUS in Cypress, TX about renter’s insurance. Renter’s insurance will safeguard your goods against theft and damage from such perils as theft, fire, vandalism, and other holiday disasters. Here’s why it’s a good idea to get a renter’s insurance policy before the holidays.
Disasters
There are so many stories about people returning from holiday travels to discover their home had been ransacked or destroyed by a disaster. Faulty plumbing could cause indoor flooding during your absence, destroying your goods along with the interior of your rental property.
