Rental Property Insurance
Troublesome tenants. Vandalized rental property. Fire damage that makes your rental uninhabitable while the mortgage needs to be paid. Stolen mowing equipment. Your tenant’s guest breaking a leg on your property. All of these are part of being a landlord, so it is extremely important to obtain and maintain proper Rental Property coverage in order to protect your investment.

Rental Property Insurance protects your rental property or unit against fire and weather damage and, depending on the type of policy, against vandalism and theft. It also provides liability coverage in case your tenant is liable for bodily injury or property damage. Finally, it includes coverage for lost income if your property cannot be rented while being repaired or replaced after a covered loss.
At Kuzbiel Insurance Brokers, we work with a variety of carriers that specialize in insuring rental properties to make sure that your investment is properly covered. We also review your policy at every renewal and keep you informed about any alternative offers.
Require Your Tenants to Get Renters Insurance
We highly recommend that you make renters insurance a requirement in your rental lease agreement. It can decrease the risk of a lawsuit if, for example, your tenant’s guest gets injured on your property. If you file a claim for damages for which the tenant was responsible, their renters policy will cover your policy deductible. Renters insurance will cover their personal belongings, which are not protected by your rental property insurance. Finally, it will help with temporary housing if your property is uninhabitable after a loss.
Renters insurance can cost as little as $20 per month. Visit our Renters Insurance page or contact us for more information.
Short-Term & Airbnb Rentals
If your lease is shorter than 6 months or if you rent your home, or part of your home, via Airbnb or other home-sharing services, your rental property insurance policy may not be enough. Please talk to us about coverage options for your specific situation.
