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