Best Answer

You must review the actual policy, but in most cases the landlords liability insurance only covers their property and NOT your personal property. You should probably get your own policy through travelers insurance for liability, and persaonal property. Make sure it includes flood/water damage as this would likely be a separate rider. Landlord Negligence would be a lawsuit to recover your property value. Seek advice from an attorney.
