There are different types of insurance, may be the insurance cover you are opting doesn't cover your stuff when you are outside the house premises. In that case you should ask your insurance agent to provide that insurance to you.

If you are renting your home and living with your boyfriend at his home why won't your insurance company cover your home?

It is possible that you have to be occupying the house to be covered by insurance. They see it as unprotected by the owner and anything could happen to it. I cant possibly be the first person to try and insure a property Im not occupying. Homeowners insurance covers your home, and a house you are renting to someone else is not your home. It can be insured, but you need a different policy.

Does homeowners insurance cover renters belongings when their house was broken into and items were stolen?

If you are the owner of the house, and are renting to tenants (making you the landlord), then you only have insurance on the house (dwelling coverage - not homeowners coverage) and not the personal contents of the renters. In this case, no, your insurance will not cover their loss. It is the responsibility of the renters to purchase insurance coverage on their personal belongings. If you are the renter (tenant), then you have to buy contents coverage on your personal belongings, such as furniture, clothing, etc. The landlord is not responsible for your belongings, whether the loss is from robbery, fire, etc. In order to purchase homeowners insurance you have to own the home (but it can still be mortgaged) and you have to live in the home. Otherwise, you have to have a dwelling policy on the house if you want it insured, whether it's vacant or rented. If, however, there is still a mortgage on the house, the bank (or mortgage holder) will require you to have insurance on it. If the house is paid for, then it is at your discretion whether to have it insured or not, for the value of the house. But if you rent it out, your state may require that you carry liability insurance on it.

What types of insurance policy apply for tenants in rental houses?

If you are a tenant who rents out an apartment, house or building for living space it is a great idea to get renter's insurance. Without renter's insurance you could lose all of your personal property and valuables if a fire or burglary ever occured. The homeowner's insurance would cover the dwelling but not your personal belongings. When you're renting, you'll want to buy renters' insurance to cover your stuff. Here's a place that sells policies: http://www.statefarm.com/insurance/renters/renters.asp

Do you need to change your homeowners insurance if you rent your house?

If you were living in your home when you first took out the homeowner's policy, then, yes, you do need to change it. To not notify the insurance company that you are now renting your home could render your coverage null and void, resulting in the loss of coverage should something happen to the house. There are several types of coverage, some of which offer more coverage than others. In your case, you need to change the policy since the house is now a rental. But, there are other factors involved, too. Did you rent the home furnished? If so, you need to maintain coverage that will still insure your contents of the house. If not, then you need to change the policy to cover the house only. The renters will need to take out a rental policy, which will cover their belongings in the event of a fire, or other types of damage. You also need to talk to your insurance agent about keeping liability insurance on the house, as well. And, since some renters aren't aware that the landlord's insurance won't cover their belongings, you need to inform the renters that they will have to take out a rental policy to insure their belongings (furniture, clothes, etc.) if they want them insured. Also, keep in mind that a homeowner's policy does not cover flood damage; that will have to be a separate policy.
