This might involve adding personal touches like a built-in bookshelf or lawn furniture. Your renters&#8217; policy from Lee Insurance Agency LLC can help protect your investment in your rented home with add-ons and personal property scheduling.<\/p>\n<h2>Understanding Renters Policies<\/h2>\n<p>Your landlord&#8217;s insurance covers damage to the home or apartment but doesn&#8217;t protect your furnishings, personal belongings, or liability. That&#8217;s where your renters&#8217; insurance comes in. Most policies provide about $1,000 of personal property protection. You can increase this coverage, but it still might not fully cover some items.<\/p>\n<h2>Coverage for Home Business or Home Office<\/h2>\n<p>To address this issue, policyholders can enhance their basic renters&#8217; insurance with add-ons that cover a home-based business, expensive items requiring scheduling for full coverage, or replacement cost coverage. For instance, if you operate a business from home or work from home using your own equipment, adding a rider, also known as an add-on, for a home business or home office provides specific coverage for your business equipment and business liability.<\/p>\n<h2>Replacement Cost Coverage<\/h2>\n<p>A rider for replacement cost coverage ensures that if a peril named in the policy damages or destroys your personal property, you&#8217;ll receive the full replacement cost of the item upon filing a successful claim. Typically, insurance companies pay the depreciated value.<\/p>\n<h2>Scheduling Items<\/h2>\n<p>Lastly, schedule items that would be expensive to replace. Many people choose the jewelry add-on and schedule their engagement ring at its full replacement value. It&#8217;s also common to schedule photography equipment, audio\/visual equipment, and any costly hobby equipment, such as power tools or film-developing equipment.<\/p>\n<h2>Contact Our Agency Today<\/h2>\n<p>Let your Lee Insurance Agency LLC agent help you add coverage to your renters&#8217; policy today.
