Denver renters insurance… simple protection that landlords love and budgets can handle
Renting in Denver means life can shift fast — new roommates in Capitol Hill, a bigger place in LoDo, or a quieter block near Wash Park. A good renters policy protects the things you bring into the space and the liability that follows you everywhere. We compare multiple carriers for personal property limits that reflect the way you live… furniture, electronics, bikes, music gear, and clothing. Then we shape liability limits that satisfy lease requirements and still feel right for your budget. If you board a dog, work from home, or travel often, we’ll match endorsements so there are fewer surprises when the unexpected happens.
Want to get organized before you quote? Our quick quote checklist helps you estimate the value of your belongings, pick a deductible, and note any high-value items that should be scheduled. Curious how pricing is built and why two carriers can return very different numbers? The comparison guide breaks down factors like ZIP, claims history, and coverage selections, so your choices feel confident. If your landlord needs proof on a tight timeline, you’ll know exactly what’s on the document by skimming our proof card explainer, then we’ll email the binder within minutes once you bind.
Bundling is the easiest way to save… pair renters with your auto policy and you often get better pricing on both. If you’ve had a claim in the past, we can still place coverage and plan for a cleaner renewal later. Prefer to talk through it first?

Coverage basics
What does Denver renters insurance cover?
It covers your belongings, personal liability, and loss of use if a covered claim forces you out… learn more.
Is theft from my car covered?
Personal items are typically covered by renters, not auto; file a renters claim for stolen property.

Continuous coverage helps; we can still place policies after a gap and revisit at renewal.
