Are you a landlord — or about to become one?
If you’re renting out a portion of your home, a second unit, or an ADU on your property, your standard homeowner’s policy may not fully protect you.
Many homeowners don’t realize:
Renting a room changes your risk profile
Adding an ADU can require a policy update
Long-term vs. short-term rentals are treated very differently
Liability exposure increases significantly once rent is involved
If you haven’t updated your insurance since:
✔️ Building an ADU
✔️ Converting a garage
✔️ Renting out a portion of your home
✔️ Turning a property into a long-term rental
…it’s worth a quick review.
Landlord insurance can help protect:
• Rental income
• Property damage
• Liability claims
• Tenant-related risks
If you’re unsure whether your current policy properly covers your situation, I’m happy to review it with you.
