Well, what do you mean by Landlord Insurance? There is property insurance and Tenant or Renter's Insurance. The former covers any damage to the property by a storm, fire, burglary, etc., but not anything inside the unit, meaning, anything owned by the tenant. That's what Tenant insurance is for. Tenant insurance covers any property of the Tenant, in and out of the home (out of the home is generally covered by only 10 %); property damage by the Tenant, either while living there or upon moveout; and medical care of up to about $1,000 to anyone who gets hurt in your home. It also covers loss of use of the home to a certain amount, which helps you with lodging and moving costs should you need to stay out of the home.
Landlord insurance typically covers loss of rent due to factors like tenant default, property damage, or other unforeseen events that make the property uninhabitable.
Typically, renters insurance does not cover damages to the landlord's property itself; it primarily protects the tenant's personal belongings and liability. If the damage is due to the tenant's negligence, they may be held responsible for repairs, but this would be outside the scope of renters insurance. Tenants should check their policy for specific coverage details and consult with their landlord regarding repairs. It's also advisable for landlords to have their own property insurance to cover such damages.
