Sioux Falls, SD is a great place to live whether you are a homeowner or a renter. As a renter, you may feel safe thinking that your landlord or management company has your back and your insurance. That is only partially correct. Your personal belongings are not covered by any insurance on the apartment, condo, or house you are renting. At Wilcoxon Insurance Inc. in Sioux Falls, SD, we are a locally owned independent agency that provides personalized service to our customers.
The insurance covering the building you rent only covers the things that come with the rental like the actual structure, the cabinets, doors, and appliances if they are included. Everything you bring in with you, your furniture, decor, and clothing will not be covered. If you don’t have renters insurance, you will have to replace everything yourself. That could be a real hardship.
Imagine your furry friend gave someone a little nip, or one of your visitors slipped in your bathroom and got hurt. Renters insurance provides liability coverage to protect you from a legal judgment against you, medical bills, and legal costs.
If your rental was hit by a covered hazard and was no longer habitable, where would you stay? With renters insurance, you would be able to stay in a hotel while you find a temporary rental to stay in until you can move back home. That would certainly give you peace of mind.
When you are ready to discuss renters insurance at Wilcoxon Insurance Inc. in Sioux Falls, SD, we will be here to help you find a policy to fit your needs and your budget. Stop in and visit us at our office or give us a call to get answers to any questions you may have and a no-obligation quote.
