Are tenants in The_ridings_at_virgn_run required to obtain renter's insurance?

The Commonwealth of Virginia does not require that renters in The_ridings_at_virgn_run to pay for a renter's insurance policy. 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, tenant negligence, or if someone is injured at the property. A’s insurance policy protects the property 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.
