Although it is technically not legally required, few people accept to take the risk by themselves and landlords often ask for you to acquire insurance when renting, and as a home owner it is in your best interest to have insurance for your home. These insurances come with options: content, theft... or even family insurance.

Action steps

• Contact a bank or insurer for a quote. Some of them offer the full process of getting a quote and subscribing to the insurance online.
• Compare prices and conditions.

Attention points

Make sure to verify your rental agreement to see which insurances are included and which ones are not.
