Will renters insurance cover me after theft by an overnight guest?

renters insurance
will cover any stolen belongings, minus your deductible. However, you may have limits set in place for individual items that fall under the categories of electronics and jewelry. Your insurance company will be able to tell you exactly how much coverage they’d offer for your laptop, tablet, and jewelry.
