Why You Need Renters Insurance in Port Angeles

If you are currently renting your home or apartment, it’s time to learn more about renters insurance!  

Here’s the deal.  Homeowners insurance covers the house itself and the items inside.  But if you don’t own the home, you don’t need insurance to cover it.  All you need is coverage for your personal belongings.

It might not seem like a lot, but all those little items add up!  When you think about the cost to replace your furniture, dishes, sheets, clothes, books, and everything else filling up your home, it’s probably more than you thought.  

Renters insurance is an affordable way to protect what you’ve worked hard to acquire.  And it’s probably a lot cheaper than you’d expect!  In fact, many times the discount you receive on your car insurance for having multiple policies can almost pay for the entire renters policy! 

Renters insurance also includes important liability coverage.  If you accidentally cause a fire that burns down the property, your insurance pays the landlord to replace it (protecting you from a damaging lawsuit).  

So if you’re renting in Port Angeles, it’s time to look at protecting your valuables.  Give us a call at 360-452-9200 today and ask for a no obligation quote on renters insurance.  And don’t forget to find out how much you’ll save on your car insurance too!
