How Much A Rental House Property Insurance Should Cost?

I rented a house and the mortgage company says I need to have rental insurance. I do not want to cover my tenants stuff, just the house in Nevada. Thanks
I own the house


Answer: You can approach this one of two ways.

1 - Get a rider on your current homeowners policy (the one on your house) to cover the rental property you have. Not all insurance carrier provide this but some allow you to have up to 2 rental properties added on to your regular home policy. This rider will cover the structure and public areas in case someone slips and falls outside, etc.

2 - call around for a landlord policy (not renters policy). This is a separate policy that will cover the same things as the policy rider above.

Good Luck!
 
 

Do I Need House Property Insurance?

Im buying a house and looking into getting house insurance. Do I really need property insurance? And what is it anyway.


Answer: if you have a mortgage loan your lender will require it and will require your loan payment include 1/12 of annual premium. the lender will pay your annual premium for you out of your escrow account.

if you have no loan then you can choose to take the risk and not carry any insurance. this is insurance that covers you in the event of fire, storm, or other damage to your home.

My Dad Owns My Home , But I Have Paid Everything For It , Property Tax Insurance Ca I Claim Th House On Taxes?

my dad bought it, i have paid everything for 8 years now property taxes house insurance houe payment, but is there anyway of me claiming anything on the house on my taxes


Answer: If you are not liable on the mortgage, and you also did not pay for it, you cannot take the mortgage interest .

You can probably take the real estate taxes, since you paid it.

Insurance is not deductible, unless it is mortgage insurance premium. But being that you are not on the mortgage, I would not take that deduction either.

In The State Of Florida Do You Have To Have House Insurance On A Rental Property?

My wife fell and broke her ankle in 3 places while on vacation at a rental house due to poor maintenance, I called the gentleman and he advised me he didnt have insurance because he couldnt afford hurricane coverage. I was wondering is there a law about having insurance or is this legal. I tryed looking it up on google but cant find anything, before I even think about legal action I want to make sure he did not have to have insurance.


Answer: You sue him either way. If he has insurance, the insurance company may choose to settle without a lawsuit, just as he can choose to do. If he has insurance, the insurance pays the settlement or the judgement. If he doesn't have insurance, he pays the settlement or judgement.
