Why You Should Purchase Home Insurance on Properties That You Are Renting Out

Home insurance is not only for the homes in which we live primarily. For some homeowners, they own several properties that are rented out to tenants and their families. If you own multiple properties in the San Francisco, CA area, be responsible and purchase home insurance on these properties today. Biddle-Shaw Insurance Services, Inc. has a policy that will fit your needs and protect your property.

Fire Damage

Often, there are unforeseen accidents that can happen in a home, whether you are living in it or renting it out. In the event that one of your homes has fire damage, that structure may be covered under your home insurance policy. Any building on your property, as well as home damages, will be covered. 

Vandalism

Unfortunately, damage can occur to the exterior of your home if you live in a high traffic area. Expect coverage from your home insurance policy if one of your homes falls victim to vandalism. Damages to broken windows, graffiti, and other exterior damages can be costly without an insurance policy. 

Personal Property

While the personal property of a tenant will not be covered by a landlord’s policy, any personal property that you have inside will be included in the policy when damaged by fire or theft. Any appliances, furniture, or equipment that belongs to you as the owner is covered in your policy. If a landlord provides appliances in the rental agreement with tenants, as a landlord, you will need to make sure that you can include them via insurance should tragedy strike.
