Things like your clothes, stereo, furniture, television, bicycle, jewelry, personal computer, artwork and other items are not covered against destruction or loss by your landlord's insurance. It is important to purchase a renters insurance policy when renting. |

| In most cases, a landlord's Northwest Phoenix apartment insurance covers only structural damage to the building itself—and many landlord policies don't even go that far if the damage is caused by a tenant. If you leave the tub running and it turns your floor into cardboard and dribbles downstairs, damaging your neighbor's couch, you may be liable for the whole drippy mess. If your building went up in flames, your landlord's coverage would include repairs, but only to the building, not to the possessions of tenants. Renters insurance will cover your possessions in case of a loss. |

| All too often, renters don't understand that they're responsible if an accident, injury or damages occur. Many renters don't know that renter's insurance exist. Others simply just never get around to buying Northwest Phoenix apartment insurance or opt to take their chances that mishaps will swerve around them. |
