| Rice University apartment insurance will insure all of your property within your apartment. Some policies will also cover your property when it's outside of your apartment. For example, if your bike is stolen when it is parked at your friend's apartment, your renters insurance may reimburse you the cost of your stolen bike. Renters insurance also covers fire or water damage. |
|
| With Rice University apartment insurance, you can replace what's damaged or stolen. Renters insurance covers your possessions against losses from fire or smoke, lightning, vandalism, theft, explosion, windstorm, and water damage from plumbing. Renters insurance also covers your responsibility to other people injured at your home or elsewhere by you, a family member or your pet, and pays legal defense costs if you are taken to court. |
|
| Rice University apartment insurance is fairly inexpensive. The average renters insurance policy is a little over $30 a month. How much are all your possessions worth? What if you had to replace them all? |
|
| Rice University apartment insurance policies have limits on reimbursement for expensive items. If you have computer or stereo equipment or costly jewelry, you may want to insure those separately. If you have items of great sentimental value, they obviously can't be replaced and you should put them in a safe deposit box. Make sure you discuss your expensive items with your agent when purchasing renters insurance |
|
| A Rice University apartment insurance policy extends beyond on-premise theft and hazards. If your suitcase is stolen while you're on vacation, you'll likely be covered. Same with property stolen from your car. If you're prone to barroom brawls—well, you might need more help than renters insurance, but you'll probably be covered if you hurt someone. Speaking of injuries, you'll also likely be protected if someone slips and sprains their ankle at your annual dance-a-thon; you may even receive compensation for legal defense costs in the case of a lawsuit. |
|
| When buying Rice University apartment insurance, let your agent know about any particularly valuable items you have. Jewelry, antiques, and electronics might be covered up to a certain amount. If you have some items that are unusually expensive, such as a diamond ring, you'll probably want to purchase a separate rider. If you don't talk to your agent about an expensive item when you buy the renters insurance policy, you probably won't be able to recover the loss. |
|
| It is simple; don’t be caught without Rice University apartment insurance. Renters insurance is as important to a renter as homeowners insurance is to the homeowner. Renters insurance will cover you for a variety of items, such as those listed above. Of course you should talk to an insurance person to make sure you know what is and is not covered under the policy you purchase. |
