I'm in Georgia. Can you prove they forced you to buy? They wouldn't give you the furniture if you didn't pay the extra? They are covering their assets. If you think you got ripped keep on trucking for a help for others.

Answer

Many creditors require that you have insurance coverage on large purchases until they are paid off. Other examples would be house and vehicle purchases. The only legal issue might be if they require you to buy the insurance from them instead of a company of your choice. Really, it protects your investment, too.

Can you share renters insurance with your roommates?

Renters insurance is definitely worth getting. Most agents or brokers from whom homeowners insurance can be purchased can also write renters insurance. As for renters insurance being shared... since you are renting the premises, renters insurance covers contents only (not the structure of the building). The policy that you buy will specify the meetes and bounds of what is covered. It is important that you list on the application or other document tendered by the agent, the items that you wish to insure. The value of the items will determine the amount of coverage that you buy. If you are buying the insurance with your roomate, be sure that both of you are shown to be insureds on the policy. Keep in mind, though, that if you part ways, the policy may have to be altered for the person who moved because the risk has changed (the property insured will be relocated to a new location). Get receipts, photos, and descriptions ready for each of the items, especially the expensive items, and tell your renters insurance company that you want to add additional items to your renters insurance policy.

Where can you get renters insurance quotes?

Renters InsuranceOnline quoting services can be useful if you know everything you need to know about balancing risk and premium. However, the cheapest policy may not be providing you the protection you need or want. I always recommend you check with a local independent agent who represents multiple companies. Also, one common mistake made when buying renters insurance is accurately valuing your personal property. A great (and FREE) tool is provided by the Insurance Information Institute. It is free downloadable software to help you figure out exactly what the replacement value of your belongings should be.
