Renters Insurance Starting at $150 a Year in Over 30 States
You may not own your rental property, but it’s still your home. Landlord insurance doesn’t cover your personal property or liability, which is why it’s important to protect your home with renters insurance. Muller Insurance offers affordable protection to renters in numerous states, including New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Nevada, and more. Policies can be tailored to your needs, providing comfort and peace of mind at prices you can afford.
What Does Renters Insurance Cover?
In case of a storm, fire, or theft, your renters policy protects your belongings. This includes electronics, furniture, clothing, and any appliances you own. It’ll also help you pay living expenses if the damage forces you to move elsewhere while repairs to your home are completed.
Renters insurance doesn’t stop with property. It also protects people. When a guest falls down the stairs, slips on a spill, or is bitten by a pet while visiting your home, for example, they can hold you legally responsible for the injury. Luckily, renters liability coverage pays for the medical costs while backing you up on lawsuit expenses.
Additional Coverage Options for Renters
Many renters don’t need any more protection than the standard policy. Depending on your circumstances, though, you may benefit from purchasing additional policies. Muller Insurance offers the following options:
- Flood insurance: If your apartment is near a body of water, consider investing in flood insurance to protect yourself in case of a disaster. This type of coverage is not included in a primary renters insurance policy.
- Earthquake coverage: Most standard property policies don’t protect against earthquakes. If you live in an earthquake-prone region, you may want to consider additional coverage.
- Jewelry, fine arts, and collectibles: While your renters insurance covers belongings, it may not be enough to protect your most valuable items. An additional policy will cover jewelry, art, antiques, fine wine, collections, and other high-end items kept in your rental unit.
- Umbrella insurance: If you’re worried about lawsuits beyond what your policy can cover, consider umbrella insurance, which extends the limits of your liability coverage.

Why Renters Insurance Is Important
Renters insurance might seem redundant. After all, doesn’t the landlord insure the building they own? Unfortunately, if you’re renting, landlord policies can’t protect you, your visitors, or your personal property.
