As a resident of One 51 Place, it’s probably safe to say that your apartment is home to most, if not all, of your belongings. What would you do in an emergency situation if your valuable property was damaged? What many renters don’t realize is that their property owner’s insurance doesn’t cover renters’ belongings. So, what can you do to ensure you and your items are protected? The answer is simple – renter’s insurance.

A standard renter’s insurance policy protects your belongings in case of fire, theft, or damage. While it is, of course, unlikely that these things will occur, most renters agree that the peace of mind they get from having a good renters insurance policy is worth the usually minimal monthly fee. In fact, many management companies require their residents to have a renter’s insurance policy regardless.

Some renter’s insurance policies even provide liability coverage in the event that someone is accidentally injured while in your apartment, or accidental negligence causes damage to the property. While you may be thinking that these things could never happen to you, there’s one important thing to keep in mind: no one ever plans for an accident. And, in the long run, it’s much easier to plan ahead and have the coverage than is it to try and come up with money out-of-pocket if it is ever needed.
