What does GEICO renters insurance cover?
I’m looking into getting renters insurance and came across an option to get it from GEICO. I thought they only did car insurance. What does GEICO renters insurance cover?

We’re glad you’re protecting yourself with renters insurance! It’s always a good idea to get coverage, even if you’ll only be renting for a few months.
GEICO renters insurance covers personal property damage from named perils, loss of use coverage, and personal liability coverage, like most standard renters policies.
This means your insurance policy can:
- Pay for repairs or replacements of property damaged by fire, smoke, theft, or vandalism
- Cover the cost of living in a hotel if your apartment becomes uninhabitable
- Help cover legal costs if someone is injured in your apartment and sues you
GEICO offers all sorts of insurance policies beyond just
car insurance
, but for these policies they work as an insurance broker
. That means your GEICO renters insurance isn’t actually provided by GEICO. It’s offered by a partner, which might be a big-name insurance provider like
Liberty Mutual
or Travelers
.Getting renters insurance through GEICO might be a good idea if you’re already a GEICO customer and you’re looking to
bundle your car and renters insurance
policies to increase your savings even more.The easiest way to find new insurance is through the
Jerry
app. Jerry can help you compare competitive quotes from many top providers and make an easy in-app switch.View full answer
