What Is Landlord Insurance?

Landlord insurance is designed specifically for rental properties. It protects your property, your income, and your liability as a property owner.

Here’s what that looks like in real life:

  • A tenant causes damage to your property
  • A fire damages your rental home
  • A tenant or visitor is injured on the property
  • You lose rental income due to a covered loss
  • Storm or hail damages the building

 Standard homeowners insurance does NOT properly cover rental properties.

Why Landlord Insurance Matters in San Antonio

San Antonio is a strong rental market—but also comes with risks.

Common exposures include:

  • Tenant-related damage
  • Liability claims
  • Storm and hail damage
  • Loss of rental income
  • Property repairs and maintenance

Here’s the reality:

  • Property damage can cost tens of thousands
  • Liability claims can exceed six figures
  • Lost rental income can impact cash flow

 Without proper coverage, your investment is at risk.
