Renters insurance in Virginia

Renters in Virginia pay approximately 1% above the national average for renters insurance. At just $22/month for most renters, this is one of the most cost-effective types of insurance available. It covers personal belongings, personal liability, and additional living expenses if your rental becomes uninhabitable.

Most renters insurance policies include $100,000 in personal liability coverage — protection if a guest is injured in your apartment or if you accidentally damage a neighbor's property. Adding renters insurance to an existing auto policy typically triggers a bundling discount that can offset part of the cost.
