What Your Rental Policy Protects

Fire coverage

Fire Coverage

In 2023, Niagara fire departments responded to over 190 residential fires. If your stuff burns, you don’t eat the cost; your insurance covers fire damage, hotel stays, and personal belongings.

Theft coverage

Theft

If someone grabs your laptop, TV, or jewelry, your coverage pays out the replacement cost, not the depreciated value.

Additional living expenses

Additional Living Expenses

If your unit becomes unlivable, tenant insurance pays for your hotel, meals, and temporary living expenses while your rental is repaired.

Sewer & water protection

Sewer Backup

Older homes and basements are vulnerable to backup and flooding, especially during Niagara storms. Your insurance policy covers property damage to floors, furniture, and electronics.

Liability Insurance

Liability Coverage

Accidental kitchen fires, flooded floors, tripped guests. If it’s your fault, liability coverage protects you from lawsuits, legal fees, and costly payouts.

Shield

Voluntary Medical Payments

If a friend or delivery driver gets hurt in your unit, voluntary medical coverage handles their costs, without legal drama.

Landlord contents - Contents coverage

Landlord Contents

If you’re in a furnished rental and the furniture or appliances take damage, Insurely’s policies include landlord contents coverage, so you’re not on the hook.

Service line coverage

FAQs

Only if they’re named on the tenant insurance policy. Otherwise, they need their own separate coverage.

Your landlord’s insurance covers the physical building structure only. It provides zero protection for your personal belongings (like electronics, furniture, or clothing) if they are stolen or damaged. It also offers no legal liability coverage for you if you are sued.

Yes, in most situations. Your tenant insurance covers your personal property even when it’s temporarily away from your home. So, if your laptop is stolen from your locked car, your policy would help cover the replacement cost, subject to your deductible.

Many insurance providers offer discounts for bundling auto insurance and home insurance policies. Insurely focuses exclusively on providing specialized tenant and home insurance to ensure the best possible coverage and service for your property.

Your policy can cover damage to your personal items from sudden and accidental water damage, regardless of where it originated. You would file a claim with Insurely to replace your damaged belongings, and we would then handle the process of seeking reimbursement from the at-fault party’s insurance company.

Mould resulting from a sudden, covered peril (like a burst pipe that is immediately addressed) may be covered. However, mould that develops over time due to high humidity, a slow leak, or a lack of maintenance is typically listed under standard policy exclusions.
