Forum / General Property Management / Renter's Insurance
Can I legally require tenants to secure renter's insurance of a minimum of $300,000 liability coverage, $5,000 of personal property coverage, and a maximum deductible of $500?

RE: Renter's Insurance
You can require renters insurance in most states however the amount that they purchase is up to them. That insurance is to protect there property only. Not yours. Your homeowners will protect yours and may not protect theirs, which is why renters insurance is recommended.
