Why Landlord Policies Do NOT Cover Your Belongings

A common misconception among apartment tenants is that the landlord's building insurance protects their furniture and electronics. Your landlord's policy only covers the physical building structure. If an upstairs neighbor's washing machine floods your apartment or a kitchen fire destroys your clothes and laptop, you receive zero reimbursement without a personal renters policy.

What Renters Insurance Covers (HO-4)

  • Personal Property: Clothes, computers, furniture, and bicycles—even if stolen out of your car while traveling.
  • Personal Liability: Protects your wages and savings if someone slips and falls inside your rented unit.
  • Loss of Use (Additional Living Expenses): Pays for hotel bills and restaurant meals if your apartment becomes uninhabitable after a covered fire or storm.
