What has your experience been like? I will eventually need to get renters insurance and wanted to see what your thoughts were.

I use Assurant. They are reasonably priced and have several options. Some insurance companies that say the offer renters insurance are actually just re-selling insurance from Assurant.

I've used Travelers for many years. Luckily, I've never had to file a claim, but they've always been helpful whenever I've had questions.

Renter's insurance is relatively inexpensive depending on the coverage that you are looking for. If you still are in the market, DM me.

I ended up getting it from Assurant. Their website was the easiest to use.

Tower ins. I have been using them for 10 years. Apt insurance is important, renters dont seem to think so.
if the building goes on fire the LL is not going to give you squat.


Apt ins is cheap, no reason why renters do not get it.

i am glad you are smart enough to know better. peace of mind is worth millions

I use USAA, but you can only get insurance from them if you're military or the adult child of a military member. That being said, they ROCK if you can get in.
