Renter’s Insurance

If you are a renter or know someone renting….Listen up!!!
Hurricane season started June 1st and already. Are you protected if your belongings were damaged by strong winds ? If you don’t have renter’s Insurance, then the answer is no.
Or If a neighbors fire damages your TV, clothes or furniture, it’s your insurance that would help you re-coup the loss.
Over the years, 10 On Your Side has received numerous phone calls from renter’s and most of them didn’t have Renter’s Insurance mainly because they didn’t know they needed it or thought they couldn’t afford it.
I interviewed Ralph Rios with Allstate according to him….”I think it’s just somehting that you just can’t afford not to have.”
The cost averages out to be about 120 dollars a year or about 65 cents a day or the cost of a soda.
