| A St. Bens apartment insurance policy covers added living expenses such as motel costs if you´re temporarily displaced from your home or apartment. This "loss of use" coverage is limited to 20 percent of the personal property coverage under your renters insurance policy. For example, if you have $25,000 of personal property coverage, your loss of use coverage would be $5,000. You will be paid up to this limit for the reasonable time required to repair or replace your rented property. |
|
| Just like any other type of homeowners insurance policy, your St. Bens apartment insurance premium depends on a number of factors: where you live, your deductible, your insurance company, and whether you need any additional coverage. Raising your deductible is a good way to reduce the monthly premium on your renters insurance policy |
|
| St. Bens apartment insurance policies are designed to indemnify you in the event of a covered loss to your personal property and protect you in the event you are responsible for bodily injury or property damage to others. Renters insurance is available for apartments or a rented house. |
|
| A complete inventory of your property can be helpful if you ever file a claim with your St. Bens apartment insurance. Keep a copy of the inventory, along with receipts and photos or a videotape, in a secure place, such as a safe deposit box. These will help prove your losses to the renters insurance company. |
|
| As soon as you obtain St. Bens apartment insurance, document your belongings. Make a videotape of everything you own or photos of everything you would want replaced. If you can't do that, write a detailed list of your things. If you lose your belongings in a fire it will be nearly impossible to remember everything you had. A record of your things will be invaluable in settling claims with the renters insurance company. |
|
| Liability protection is also standard with most St. Bens apartment insurance policies. This means if someone in your unit slips and falls, you're covered for any costs, up to your liability limit. If this person sues you, you're covered for what they win in a court judgment as well as your legal expenses, up to your renters insurance policy's limit. |
|
| You might think you don't need St. Bens apartment insurance if you rent, but think again! Add up the cost of your furniture, your electronic equipment, your CD collection, computer, garments and other personal property. Can you afford to replace everything in the event of a fire or burglary? Getting renters insurance gives you to protection you need |
