Landlord Insurance for your Rental Property

Real Estate and Rental Property owners face unique risks and have assets that are important to cover that aren't included on a normal homeowners insurance policy. Another few commonly used terms for Landlord policies are also Fire Dwelling Insurance or Lessor's Risks.

Most landlord policies cover the building, loss of income, personal property, liability coverage, and much more. Many landlords should consider an umbrella policy for increased and unknown liability that could arise in the event something happens on their premises. It is also important to make sure you have enough coverage for your building as well as enough rental income so that your income from your properties continues in the event of a large loss.
