My Landlord covers it.

  • So usually, if a landlord has a renter's policy for you, it is part of your rent, and you will know the limits of coverage for your personal items. Sometimes what landlords are referring to is that they have the physical structure covered, and not your personal belongings. You can probably save money on your Auto policy by bundling with a Renters policy with Progressive. I can connect you with someone to see what that rate would be. Shall we do that today?
