Landlord’s Insurance

Renters Insurance

Being a business owner is a big responsibility, especially when you’re in the business of housing others. Rental properties come with risks, especially in terms of liability.

With many people (both renters and their visitors) on your property at any given time, protecting yourself and your property is vital.

Landlord insurance policies protect you against risks to your property and yourself, such as:

  • Fire
  • Smoke
  • Theft
  • Vandalism
  • Explosion
  • Lighting
  • Wind
  • Hail
  • Liability

Rental property insurance is important because while your renters may invest in tenant insurance, their policies do not protect the main structure of your rental property, communal spaces, attached and detached structures. Their renters insurance policy doesn’t protect you from liability issues which occur outside of their individual units.

At Ron Johnston Insurance, we have been serving Ontario business owners for more than 40 years, and working with landlords across the province has taught us a lot about what clients like you find important.

We strive to ensure that your rental income is secure, and that your investment properties have the best coverage at the most affordable price points.

What is Rental Property Insurance?

While Ontario poses many safe and vibrant neighbourhoods, there are risks when renting to others. Rental property” insurance protects you in the event of damage to your property, communal areas shared by your tenants, and liability issues.

No two dwellings are the same, which is why Ron Johnston Insurance provides you with the opportunity to customize your landlord policy to fit your individual needs.

There are two main types of rental property insurance policies, a standard coverage policy, and an extended coverage policy. You can add extra protection you need, depending on your lifestyle, location, and rental property type, in an extended policy.

What Does Landlord’s? Insurance Cover?

Landlord insurance protects your investment, ensuring you are not accountable for financial losses resulting from damage to your property and belongings, or liability issues. our rental property insurance policy extends across:

  • The main structure of the rental property – The building, including windows, doors, walls, floors, plumbing, and heating and cooling systems are protected by your landlord’s insurance policy
  • Communal spaces – Depending on the rental property you own, there may be staircases, elevators, lobbies, community rooms, and other shared spaces. These communal areas are also covered by your policy.
  • External property – From gardens and manicured lawns to paved parking lots and pet play areas – you can insure all the outdoor space on your property in case of damage.
  • Attached and detached structures – Many rental properties include storage rooms, tool sheds, garages, pools, fences, patios, and other additional structures. These areas are all included in the coverage from your landlord insurance policy.
  • Liability issues – You are responsible for the comings and goings on your property in any area which isn’t covered by your tenant’s individual tenants insurance policy. Landlord insurance helps cover legal fees and medical fees for liability issues that may occur on your property.

You can opt for extended landlord insurance options, which may provide additional coverage on flood damage, sewer backup, and loss of income due to negligent tenants or lack of tenants.

Landlord insurance covers a variety of property types, including:

  • Single dwelling homes
  • Duplexes
  • Townhouses
  • Apartment complexes
  • Airbnbs
