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.

Is getting renters insurance for your dormitory a good investment?

Renters insurance generally covers the contents of the dwelling. The structure is covered by the owner (in your case, the college or university). Therefore, whether renters insurance is a good investment depends upon what you stand to lose upon the happening OS a covered event. That is, you have to assess what you keep in the dorm, its value, and weigh that against the annual cost of the insurance (the premium). If you are on the edge of it being financially worthwhile, you can generally increase the deductible which will usually reduce the premium. Keep in mind, though, that the deductible is the amount that you have to pay out of pocket toward the loss before the insurance coverage is triggered. Therefore, make sure that you can absorb that amount.

What is the best way to insure jewelry?

My recommendation for insuring Jewelry is to schedule each item specifically on a Homeowners or Renters insurance policy.Homeowners and Renters insurance policies do provide a limited amount of coverage automatically in most states, but the coverage is very limited, often not more than $5,000 total loss with a per item limit of $1,000.By scheduling a piece of jewelry you are ensuring coverage on a All Risk basis.The first step is to get an appraisal from a Jeweler than give that appraisal to your insurance professional who will add the piece of jewelry to your homeowners or renters insurance policy.There are other ways and others policies but this is my recommendation
