Best Answer

You only need insurance if you want any of your belongings covered if the building burns down, someone breaks in your home and steals your items, someone trips on your steps and sues you for injuries. These would be a few of the reasons that you may want to purchase insurance on your belongings. You can only insure your items in the home and not the building that you are renting. You can only insure something you own. The person renting you the home cannot charge you for insurance on the home. You purchase your own policy just covering your furniture, clothing, etc and liability. Your policy will not pay for his property and vice versus.
