| In most cases, a landlord's Clark County Area 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. |
|
| Do not shop for Clark County Area apartment insurance by price alone. You want a company that answers your questions and handles claims fairly and efficiently. Ask friends and relatives for their recommendations for a solid company offering renters insurance. Contact your state insurance department to find out whether they make available consumer complaint ratios by company. |

| News reports of apartment fires often include tragic stories of renters who lost everything because they were uninsured. If you rent an apartment, duplex, house, or townhouse, your landlord´s Clark County Area apartment insurance policy covers losses to the building, but it does not cover your personal property. To protect your belongings, you need a separate renters insurance policy. Renters insurance covers your personal property and household items in the event of a fire, theft, or other loss. It also offers you financial protection if a visitor is injured in your home. |
|
| Consider choosing a Clark County Area apartment insurance policy that pays the replacement cost as opposed to one that pays the actual cash value of the insured items. A replacement cost renters insurance policy usually costs about 10 percent more. But there are ways to save on insurance. Companies offer a discount to customers who purchase automobile and renter's insurance. A 5 percent discount on car insurance could pay for the renter's policy. Also a higher deductible will lower the premium cost for renter's insurance. |
|
| Your landlord's Clark County Area apartment insurance doesn't cover your personal property.

It is important to purchase a renters insurance policy when renting. |
