Renters Insurance
from Pepper, Johnstone & Company
Renting offers the flexibility and convenience that suits many lifestyles. However, while you may not own the property you reside in, your personal belongings and liability responsibilities remain significant.
Renters insurance, a specialized coverage designed for renters, serves as a crucial safeguard in this context. It is distinct from homeowners insurance, which covers the structure of the property as well.
Renters insurance is not a one-size-fits-all solution. It can be tailored to align with your specific needs and circumstances.
Whether you have high-value possessions, reside in a multi-room apartment, or wish to enhance your liability coverage, your policy can be customized accordingly.
Coverage for Peace of Mind
Liability coverage is another essential component of renters insurance. Accidents can occur within your rented space, leading to injuries or damage to another person's property.
Liability coverage assists with covering legal expenses and damages if you are found responsible for such incidents, ensuring your financial well-being remains intact.
In situations where your rented home becomes uninhabitable due to covered perils, renters insurance can be a financial lifesaver. It can provide coverage for additional living expenses, such as temporary accommodation costs and meals.
Comprehensive Protection for Your Belongings
One of the primary objectives of renters insurance is to protect your personal belongings. This includes everything from furniture and electronics to clothing and jewelry.
In the event of unexpected incidents such as fire or theft, a renters insurance policy steps in to help you recover the financial value of your possessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
about everything insurance
Always contact us first, so we can best advise you on whether filing the claim makes sense or can adversely impact your future premiums and is best for you to self-insure the loss. Don’t make the mistake of filing a small claim, since all claims stay on your claims record for 5-years, which will impact your insurance premium for a 5-year period. Let our in-house claims advocates help guide you through this process.
The amount of loss paid by the policyholder. Either a specified dollar amount and/or a percentage of the total value. The larger the deductible, the lower the premium charged for the same coverage, since you are assuming a higher loss amount by taking a higher deductible. Insurance carriers only pay losses above the deductible amount, so if the loss incurred is not substantially above your deductible, it’s usually best to self-insure (i.e., pay the loss yourself out-of-pocket) by not filing it with your insurance carrier.

I started a company in January 2019 & the team at Pepper Johnstone helped me from the beginning. We serve mid-cap to large public companies in Alabama, Colorado and Texas. And, Bryan has been critical in helping us meet and maintain the required commercial insurance policies and coverage levels. Key reasons that I've been so pleased primarily include their high level of technical competence and timely responsiveness on new or changing insurance coverage requests. They do a great job & I can highly recommend them.
