Rental / Vacation Home Insurance
Rental Property Insurance Built for How You Rent
When a Homeowners Policy Isn't the Right Fit
Once a property is rented-long-term or short-term-it's no longer insured the same way as a primary residence. Many homeowners policies restrict or exclude coverage when a home is tenant-occupied or used as a vacation rental.

Rental property insurance is designed to match how the property is actually used, removing gray areas around occupancy and claims.

Landlord Insurance vs. Short-Term Rental Insurance
Not all rentals are the same, and the policy should reflect that.
Long-term rentals often use a landlord or dwelling policy (commonly DP-3).
Short-term or vacation rentals may require different endorsements or specialized coverage due to guest turnover and increased liability exposure.
We help determine which structure fits your situation-without forcing everything into a one-size-fits-all policy.
What Rental Property Insurance Typically Covers
A rental property policy is structured differently than a homeowners policy and may include:
Building coverage for the dwelling
Landlord liability protection
Loss of rents coverage after a covered loss
Optional contents coverage for furnished rentals
Coverage responds to claims differently than owner-occupied policies, which is why structure matters.
Loss of Rents Coverage Explained
If a covered claim makes your rental uninhabitable, loss of rents coverage can help replace rental income during repairs. This protects cash flow-not just the building-when downtime happens.

This is one of the most overlooked but valuable parts of landlord insurance.
Rental Setup Checklist (What Impacts Coverage)
To quote accurately, we help confirm:
Is the property tenant-occupied or vacant?
Is it furnished or unfurnished?
Long-term tenants or short-term guests?
Is a property manager involved?
Any pools, trampolines, dogs, or special liability exposures?
Answering these upfront helps avoid coverage gaps later.
