Estimated range for a standard tenant insurance policy in BC.
Tenant insurance is built around protecting your belongings, your liability, and your temporary living costs if your rental becomes unusable after a covered loss.
Helps protect personal belongings such as furniture, electronics, clothing, and household items inside your rental unit, up to the policy limits selected.
Helps protect you if you are legally responsible for bodily injury or property damage to others, including accidental damage to the rental unit.
If your rental unit becomes unlivable after an insured loss, this can help with temporary costs such as hotel stays, meals, and related expenses within policy limits.
Many policies also extend protection to belongings away from home, subject to policy wording, limits, and sublimits for certain valuables.
Whether you are moving into your first rental, replacing an existing policy, or buying coverage because your landlord requires it, the goal is the same: protect your side of the risk properly.
