Are tenants in Riverplace required to obtain renter's insurance?
The Commonwealth of Virginia does not require that tenants in Riverplace to obtain renter’s insurance. However, leases prepared by our property managers require that tenants buy renter’s insurance to cover losses of the tenant's personal property due to theft, fire, tenant negligence, or if someone is injured at the rental property. A’s insurance policy protects the rental dwelling from loss, but not the tenant’s personal property if it is damaged, destroyed or stolen. Please contact your insurance agent to let them know that you are putting your property into service.
