Rental Riddles Resolved
Lightning, leases and litigation;
Be sure to insure your own possessions, if there’s a major storm that destroys personal property, who’s to pay?
A faulty electrical connection may fry your toaster, laptop or smartphone. Tenants are responsible for insuring their own property, but if it can be proven that the landlord was negligent, the situation changes.
A lighting hit that roasts a tenant’s electronics is normally their problem to resolve.
Check with your insurance company, as well as confirming cover with the owner of the property.
Never be afraid to ask, if tenants or landlords are unwilling to answer questions regarding insurance details, red flag.
Please contact a property professional if you’re unsure.
