Protect what you love: Renters can now purchase renters insurance on Zillow
SEATTLE, Sept. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Zillow is simplifying another step in the renting journey by introducing renters insurance in partnership with Homesite. Renters can now conveniently purchase a policy through the Zillow app or website at key points in their journey, — whether it's when they sign their lease or after they've settled into their new place.
- An online survey1 of current and prospective renters conducted by Zillow found that 50% have renters insurance.
- In most cases, a landlord's insurance does not protect renters or their personal belongings, and that's where renters insurance comes in.
- Now, Zillow makes it easier for renters to learn about what renters insurance covers and decide what coverage and amounts work best for them.
- Renters insurance through Zillow is now available in 49 states and Washington, D.C. To date, more than 1,500 renters have already secured policies through Zillow Insurance Services2.
