Miami Renters & Tenant Insurance

Most Miami residents rent, and your landlord's policy covers only the building, not your belongings or your liability. Miami renters insurance fills that gap for a few dollars a month, and most buildings in Brickell, downtown, and Edgewater now require it. We help you set the right personal-property and liability limits, add replacement-cost coverage so a claim pays what it costs to replace your things, and bundle it with auto to lower both bills.

A typical Miami renters policy runs about $15 to $30 a month and covers theft, fire, water damage from a burst pipe, and your liability if a guest is injured. It also pays for temporary housing if your unit becomes unlivable after a covered loss.

Ask for replacement cost rather than actual cash value. Replacement cost pays to buy new items at today's prices, while actual cash value subtracts years of depreciation. The difference is small on premium but large at claim time.

We serve clients throughout Miami and Miami-Dade County, from Brickell to Edgewater.
