Are tenants in Crystal City required to purchase renter's insurance?
The Commonwealth of Virginia does not require that renters in Crystal City to buy renter’s insurance. However, our leases require that renters buy a renter's insurance policy to cover 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 property 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.
