the Holiday season is time for joy and celebration. Unfortunately, it is also time for opportunistic burglars.

Chicago, IL (1888PressRelease) November 08, 2009 - Not everyone who rents a home, apartment, or condo is properly covered with renters insurance. Those that aren’t might want to reconsider their stance especially with winter coming in a hurry. Why winter?

While winter is still at bay, those who already have a renters insurance policy should check with their insurance agent to see if it includes enough coverage. But for those who don’t even have a renters insurance policy in place, it is never too late to get one. “Renters insurance will give you the peace of mind that—should anything happen to your rented home, apartment, or condo—you will be covered regardless of your landlord’s policy,” states the InsuranceAgents.com article titled, ‘Winter Hazards and Renters Insurance.’

Anybody who has any type of insurance policy can attest to the fact that having to file a claim is never welcome. That is why it is important to take a few simple steps in avoiding ever having to file a renters insurance claim because of the winter weather. For starters, all renters should keep their sidewalks, pathways, and driveways clear and salted. In some instances this falls under the responsibility of the landlord but they aren’t always around so it is important for the renter to take initiative and keep safe property.

Also, the Holiday season is time for joy and celebration. Unfortunately, it is also time for opportunistic burglars. Contents coverage is an important aspect of any renters insurance policy. Keep it intact by installing deadbolt locks, a security system, and motion sensor lighting outside to stave off Christmastime burglars.

Not only will these tips prevent renters insurance claims but they could also lower renters insurance premiums. Head on over to InsuranceAgents.com to learn more today.
