| Memphis apartment insurance will protect your property from theft, fire, and other perils. One common myth is that your landlord's insurance protects you. This is false. Your landlord's insurance only covers the dwelling and does not cover your personal property. Another myth is that you don't own that much stuff and that it isn't worth buying insurance. This is also false. Once you make a list of all your belongings and estimate their value, you realize that own thousands of dollars worth of property. The average person has over $20,000 worth of stuff. Surprised? A renters insurance policy will cover your belongings. |

| In most cases, a landlord's Memphis 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. |
