Your landlords insurance won't cover damage to or loss of your possessions. Also, consider special coverage like flood insurance for your belongings. Be clear about what a policy will cover. Some policies cover more than others. Comparison shop for the best coverage at the best price.
Policies vary from company to company.
Policies in most areas are very affordable. Start with the company that insures your car. Discounts are often available if you carry more than one policy with a company. You may also want to consider special coverage as insurance for renters and homeowners won't cover certain types of losses. Ask your insurance agent or financial planner about special or additional coverage for floods, earthquakes, home offices, and other potential problems.
