I live in an apartment in Cary and my renters insurance went up this yr by $68. (for no fault of mine)
Can anyone recomment a different provider?
thanks.
Who was your provider???
What was the final (new) cost?
It would be easier for us to offer alternates if we had a bit more details.
(I am very happy with St Farm, at about $130/yr)
But you need to read the fine print to make sure you are comparing apples-to-apples. Is it replacement value? Does it cover personal property outside your house (like things stolen out of your car). How about special coverage for computers, collectables, guns, furs, jewelry. ....

Same here, I use the office on the corner of Ch Hill and Cary Pkwy. Always helpful, seemingly decent rates, and I've never even had to walk through the door with them. Any time I call and don't get an immediate answer, they are excellent about calling me back. Always give me helpful answers to my questions too.
So the apartment is a 1 bedroom with sprinkers inside (for fire). The leasing office madates a $300K coverage. I do know that I have computer coverage. I don't know if I have any other special coverages. I would say it's pretty basic.
Old premium used to be 121 a yr and from renewal from july is $189.
Bmateo, is that office you are reffering to a state farm office?
If you are comfortable with a little more risk, you can lower the premium by taking a higher deductible.
I mean, how often have you ever made a renter's insurance claim?
I would probably suggest a $500 or $1000 deductible, and really just carry the insurance for catastrophic loss or injury.

$189 for renter's? Who are you insured with? Do you have a car with them?
I've used Liberty Mutual for years, in several different states, and been very happy with them.
I currently use them for homeowner's and auto, but have had renters with them in the past and have found their rates pretty comparable.
