While your insurance professional can address your unique circumstances, it is often a wise decision for renters or lessees to get insurance cover for property and equipment. If you're unsure about your specific circumstances, contact our expert team today.


Here's An Example:

Hope leases a storefront for her day spa. While she does not own the building, she has a large amount of money invested in all of the equipment needed to serve her customers, as well as the items that make her spa stand out from the competition.Suppose a fire destroys the building. Most, if not all, of Hope’s equipment and decorative items will also be lost. If she does not have the necessary cover, Hope will experience a tremendous financial loss. The loss could be significant enough to force her to close her business permanently.However, if Hope has insurance that covers the property and equipment, she will be able to replace the things needed to operate her business.
