What's covered

What renters insurance covers

Renters insurance is one of the most affordable and overlooked types of insurance. For most people, it costs between $15 and $30 per month — and it protects things that would cost thousands to replace.

Personal property

Covers your furniture, electronics, clothing, and other belongings if they're stolen, damaged by fire, or destroyed by a covered event. This coverage can even apply when your belongings are outside your apartment — like a laptop stolen from your car.

Personal liability

If someone is injured in your rental or you accidentally damage someone else's property, renters liability coverage pays for legal defense and settlements.

Additional living expenses

If your rental becomes uninhabitable after a covered loss, renters insurance can pay for a hotel or temporary housing while repairs are made.

Mississippi renters and storm risk

Standard renters policies cover wind and hail damage to your belongings. They do not cover flood — if you're in a low-lying area or near water, ask us about adding flood coverage.

Common questions

My landlord requires renters insurance — what do I need?
Most landlords require a minimum of $100,000 in personal liability coverage. We can get you a policy quickly that meets your lease requirements and protects your belongings too.
How much does renters insurance cost in Mississippi?
Most renters pay between $15 and $30 per month. The exact cost depends on how much coverage you need and your location. It's one of the best values in insurance.
Does renters insurance cover my roommate?
Generally no — each person should have their own policy. Some insurers allow you to add a roommate, but it's often cleaner (and not much more expensive) for each person to carry their own.
What if I don't have much stuff — do I still need it?
Most people underestimate what their belongings are worth. Add up your furniture, electronics, clothes, and appliances — it's usually $10,000–$30,000. And the liability coverage alone is worth the cost.
