When you buy a renters insurance policy, you are actually buying several individual coverages. Each coverage protects you against different types of losses. A brief description of the four basic coverages is provided here.
- Contents - Protects furniture, clothing, and other personal belongings.
- Additional Living Expenses - Pays for extra expenses you have for lodging, food, and other items if disaster forces you from your apartment.
- Liability - Protects you when you or one of your family unintentionally injures someone or damages their property.
- Medical Payment - Pays the bills for others injured while on your property.
