Landlord Insurance FAQ
Are landlord and homeowners insurance policies the same? No.
Landlord insurance is specifically for owners who rent out a property. It typically covers the value of the improvements, along with liability protection and coverage of rental income losses.
The cost of an investment property insurance policy can be about 25% more than a homeowners insurance policy, but that’s not always the case. The only way to know how your cost will compare is to get a quote!
Is landlord insurance required? Maybe.
Many mortgage companies and lenders may require that you have a landlord insurance policy on a rental property. This is different from a homeowners policy, which may not cover you if you are renting out the property.
Collecting on a claim for a tenanted rental investment property could be difficult if the home was covered by a regular homeowners policy at the time of loss.
How can I reduce my landlord insurance costs? Some ideas:
To potentially reduce premiums, make repairs promptly, install safety devices such as burglar alarms, carbon monoxide detectors, and 10-year lithium ion smoke detectors. Make sure your insurer is aware of any new additions or significant quality upgrades like new kitchens and bathrooms.
Get free quotes regularly to compare coverage amounts and premiums.
How often should I review my landlord policy? At least annually.
Review your policy at least every year (or better yet twice a year) and pull an updated quote if rents have changed, you’ve added square footage, or you’ve made meaningful safety upgrades to your property.
