Own rental property in Texas? Protect your personal assets with a simple umbrella policy. A typical landlord policy covers $100K–$500K in liability. If a serious injury leads to a $1.5M judgment, that extra $1M comes out of your pocket unless you have an umbrella. I recommend a $1M umbrella as a strong starting point — it sits on top of your existing policies and fills gaps when limits run out.
Make sure your underlying liability limits meet insurer requirements and list each rental on the application. For most landlords, a $1M umbrella costs only a few hundred dollars a year — small price, big protection.

Owning rental property in Texas is a great investment — until the day something goes wrong on one of your properties and the lawsuit names you personally. That is the scenario umbrella insurance exists for, and landlords are some of the people who need it most.What Umbrella Insurance Actually Does...
