Renters Insurance

A landlord’s insurance policy typically does not cover your personal belongings or liability as a renter. PAC Insurance can help Alabama tenants explore renters insurance options that match their budget and priorities.

What Does Renters Insurance Cover?

A standard renters insurance policy may include:

• Personal property coverage may help cover belongings like furniture, electronics and clothing if they are damaged or stolen due to a covered event, such as fire, theft or water damage.
• Liability coverage may apply if someone is injured in your rental or if you accidentally damage another person's property.
• Additional living expenses coverage may provide coverage for temporary housing and related costs if your rental becomes uninhabitable due to a covered loss.

Who Should Get This Policy?

Renters insurance can be a good fit for a wide range of tenants, including:

• Students renting near campus or in off-campus housing
• Young professionals leasing an apartment or townhome
• Families renting a house or a larger living space
• First-time renters unfamiliar with coverage gaps in a landlord's policy
• Long-term tenants looking to cover accumulated belongings

What May Not Be Covered?

A standard policy may not cover certain losses, such as:

• Flood or earthquake damage
• High-value items like jewelry or artwork
• Gradual wear and tear
• Business-related property

What Can Affect Your Insurance Options and Costs?

Your renters insurance rates may depend on the value of your personal property, your chosen liability coverage level, your location and its associated risks and any additional coverage options you add to your policy.
