Top-Tier Renters Insurance
Get Competitively Rated Renters Insurance
Many renters believe their household goods are covered under their landlord's homeowner insurance policy after a fire, tornado, flood, and other perils. However, when these unfortunate incidents come upon the household, the landlord can only get coverage for the structure of the residence and outer structures like sheds or workshops owned by the insured.
Unfortunately, this leaves you as the renter having to pick up the pieces of what is left of your belongings. It is a substantial financial burden and one that can be overwhelming and taxing to come back from without a plan in place.
At the AHI Group in Olathe, KS, we specialize in helping renters get back on their feet after suffering loss. We offer you affordable coverage to help you feel secure as you recuperate.
What Does Tenant’s Insurance Cover?
Tenant insurance isn’t mandatory, but it typically includes several standard coverages. In some cases, landlords will require that you obtain coverage as per a condition in your lease agreement. At the very least, they may require you to carry personal liability for injuries and damages. Tenant insurance is a small price to pay for considerable protection.
If you’re shopping around for the right tenant insurance, then it’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with the different coverages that are available to help protect yourself, your finances, and more:
Additional Living Expenses
You and your family can find refuge with renters’ insurance if the unthinkable happens. There is coverage available for additional living expenses to help you obtain temporary residence while displaced after a fire, flood, or covered peril and assist with food and clothing.
Personal Liability for Injury and Damages
Even though you are renting a residence, you can still be sued for injuries to a third party or damages to the property, mainly if a fire or incident originated within your home. Contact us today at AHI Group to discuss your options; we will get you covered.
Contents Coverage
Perhaps the largest component of your coverage is your contents coverage, which insures your physical possessions – anything owned by you, including your appliances, furniture, and collectibles – against natural disasters, fire, flooding, theft, vandalism, and more.
What Does Tenant Insurance Cost?
Tenant insurance costs tend to range between $20-$50/month, or even less. Tenant insurance is considered one of the more affordable policies, as it covers you liability and contents without taking the actual building into account. Here are some factors that tenant insurance may be based off of:
- Where you live
- The value of your contents
- The amount of coverage you choose
- Your deductible amount
- Security features of your unit
- Type of building

Saving on Tenant Insurance
Venturing into the realm of tenant insurance? Renter's insurance is essential for all tenants. While costs can vary, at AHI Group, we provide strategies to alleviate the financial burden without compromising comprehensive coverage.
Work with an agent
While obtaining tenant insurance independently is possible, collaborating with an agent unlocks valuable opportunities. Our agents are adept at navigating the insurance landscape, directing you to optimal coverage options from leading insurers and securing the most competitive rates. Armed with insights and savings strategies, they ensure you maximize cost efficiency without compromising protection. Rely on an AHI Group agent to guide you towards the finest choices for your tenant insurance requirements.
Pay annually
If it’s financially feasible, paying annually for your policy can help cut out some “middle-man” expenses, like administrative fees. Some insurers will also offer discounts if you pay annually for your insurance.
Increase deductibles
Opting for a higher deductible amount may mean paying more out-of-pocket in the event of a loss, but it can help you save on your insurance premiums over the long term. Ask an agent from AHI Group for advice on how much to increase your deductible by.
