Requiring the coverage is a good idea. After all, if you own a car, its a simple matter of calling the agent you bough your automobile insurance from.

Another great feature is the liablity aspect, which protects you against lawsuits should someone slip and fall inside your apartment.

I unfortunately let my renters insurance lapse because I thought I didn't have the extra money - people in low income situations are in need of renters insurance maybe more than others - this event significantly hurt me financially and has taken this almost 2 years to recover from - In NC I now have a policy for $83 per year - definitely worth saving for after what I went through.

FGY! Your reason is "Landlords Benefits of Renter’s Insurance". There is only one benefit listed, Peace of mind that i'm protected? Again GFY. $20 a month is nothing to some people and food to others. You are unreal. Wow, just being “served” by my landlord that I must have renters insurance can I just say. FGY!

They shouldn't do this for low income people or section 8 because we already have a hard time that is why we are on this, we use that extra money to buy things our son needs. Our apartment complex is going to start doing this when people renew their lease.
