Are renters in Annandale required to purchase renter's insurance?

The Commonwealth of Virginia does not require that tenants in Annandale to buy renter’s insurance. However, our leases require that renters pay for a renter's insurance policy to cover losses of the tenant's personal property due to theft, fire, renter negligence, or if someone is injured at the rental dwelling. A’s insurance policy protects the rental property from loss, but not the renter’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.
