Are tenants in Northern Virginia required to pay for renter's insurance?
The Commonwealth of Virginia does not require that tenants in Northern Virginia to pay for renter’s insurance. However, leases prepared by our property managers require that renters buy renter’s insurance which pays for losses of the tenant's personal property due to theft, fire, renter negligence, or if someone is injured at the rental property. A’s insurance policy protects the rental dwelling from loss, but not the tenant’s personal property if it is damaged, destroyed or stolen. Please contact your insurance agent to let them know that you are putting your property into service.
