Compare Renters Insurance for Cullomburg Apartments & Multi-Family Homes
Cullomburg offers a range of rental options—protect your belongings with the right coverage. We’ll size Replacement Cost for your items, add personal liability and loss of use (ALE), and handle landlord certificate requirements.
Why Cullomburg Renters Need HO-4 Coverage
Your landlord’s policy won’t cover your belongings or your liability. The building is insured by the owner; your **renters policy** protects your property, your personal liability, and provides a buffer for temporary housing if a covered loss forces you out. The NAIC’s consumer guidance is clear on this point.
Local reality: Cullomburg leases may require proof of renters insurance. Alabama law supports tenant rights, so ensure compliance with local housing standards.
What Your Cullomburg Renters Policy Can Include
Personal Property (Contents)
- Replacement Cost on belongings (vs ACV depreciation)
- Electronics, furniture, clothing—on and (within limits) off-premises
- Scheduled items for jewelry, fine arts, collectibles
Standard perils include fire/smoke, theft, vandalism, windstorm, and sudden water damage (not flood).
Personal Liability & MedPay
- $300k–$500k typical; higher limits available
- Medical payments to others regardless of fault (limit varies)
- Add a Personal Umbrella for $1M–$10M extra protection
Loss of Use (ALE)
- Hotel/rental & extra costs if a covered loss makes your home uninhabitable
- Critical after fires, burst pipes, or neighbor overflows
ALE follows the HO-4’s covered perils—not civil/lease disputes.
Popular Add-Ons
- Water Backup (sump/sewer backup) for your contents
- Identity Theft expense
- Earthquake (available via endorsement/standalone)
- Equipment Breakdown for covered home systems (varies by carrier)
Basement Apartments & Flood: What to Know
Standard renters policies **exclude flood**. If your apartment is at/below grade, check your address on FEMA’s Flood Map Service Center and Alabama’s flood resources. If risk is present, we’ll quote **contents-only flood insurance** (NFIP or private).

What does a renters (HO-4) policy cover?
Four core parts: Personal Property (your belongings), Personal Liability (injury/property damage you cause), Medical Payments to Others, and Loss of Use (ALE) for temporary living expenses after a covered loss. Flood and earthquake are excluded unless added separately.
Replacement Cost vs. Actual Cash Value—what’s the difference?

Build a quick inventory (rooms, closets, electronics, small appliances, wardrobe, sports/hobby gear). Add up replacement values and round up.
What liability limit should I carry?
$300k–$500k is common. If you need extra protection, add a Personal Umbrella for $1M–$10M.
