Hello friends, I would love if someone could make me an order regarding the insurance that the landlord and tenant needs…
Hello friends,
I would be happy if anyone could arrange for me about the insurance that a landlord and a tenant should purchase during the lease term.
As far as I know the landlord needs to purchase insurance called landlord policy. My question is - how does he actually protect the landlord?
In addition, the tenant undertakes to purchase insurance coverage against damage to his personal property, does such insurance only protect the tenant's personal property? (Or also from injuries to the renter and other people?)
What about LLC? Is it advisable / desirable to start a company on the property
rented? Or is umbrella insurance worthwhile?

Renters insurance is what the tenants are supposed to do and it covers the entire contents of the apartment from any damage, flooding, theft, fire
The most important thing in understanding insurance is that you need to have "Insurable
Interest ”
So the property owner insures his interest in the property, with it the structure and contents or third party insurance.
The property owner does not have a tenant's property franchise, so he does not insure it.
You can insure the structure in several forms:
1. DP3 Third Party Structure and Insurance
2. Commercial package - Third party structure and insurance
3. There are also only those who choose to do only third party insurance.
The tenant should do HO4. This is a very cheap policy, usually $200-$350 per year.
This policy will cover the contents of the tenant and third party insurance for the tenant.
So for example, say that a stranger claims that a tree from the area of the house has fallen to it, so your third party insurance (the property owner will respond).
If a stranger claims that he came to visit the tenant and disputes the floor that the tenant just washed, then theoretically, if the tenant has HO 4, then the property owner's policy will follow the tenant's policy to protect the property owner because the negligence is the tenant's and not the property owner's.
If there is no policy for the property owner's policy tenant will try to show that there is no negligence on the part of the property owner, but the policy will still pay attorney's fees that will be considered against the property owner.
Always to do another layer of protection and not put the property on your name these company.
