FAQs About Renters Insurance

  • Is renters insurance required in Georgia?

    No state law requires it — but many landlords in Atlanta do. Either way, it’s a smart move.

  • How much renters insurance should I get?

    Start with the value of your belongings. We’ll help you customize your policy from there — $20,000 coverage is a typical starting point.

  • Does renters insurance cover my roommate?

    Not by default. Unless your roommate is listed on your policy, they’ll need their own. It’s cheap and worth it.
