Is renters insurance required?

Renters insurance is typically not a legal requirement, but it is often highly recommended by landlords and property management companies, including Atlas Properties. While the landlord's insurance policy usually covers the building and their personal property, it does not cover the tenants' belongings. Renters insurance can provide financial protection in case of theft, fire, or other damages to personal property within the rented unit. Additionally, some landlords may require tenants to obtain renters insurance as a condition of the lease agreement to ensure that they are protected against potential liabilities. It is important for tenants to review the specific terms of their lease and be aware of any insurance requirements or recommendations outlined therein.
