Insurance for Landlords and Rental Property in Vancouver, WA

Protecting rental owners across Washington and Oregon

Quote Now

Renting out a house, a condo, or a small multiplex is a business, and a standard homeowners policy is not built for it. We help local owners protect the building, cover their liability, and replace lost rent if a covered claim leaves the place empty during repairs. Tell us about your property and we'll compare options across our carriers for you.

What we handle for you

  • Dwelling coverage sized to rebuild the structure, not only the mortgage
  • Liability protection for claims a tenant or their guest could bring
  • Loss of rent coverage while a covered repair keeps the unit empty
  • The gap a personal homeowners policy leaves once you rent the place out
  • Umbrella coverage over your rental and your own assets
  • Flood coverage for properties near the Columbia and other low-lying areas

Carriers we work with for landlords

  • Foremost
  • American Modern
  • Liberty Mutual (formerly Safeco)

Landlords FAQ

Can I use my homeowners policy for a rental?

Usually not once tenants move in. Homeowners policies are written for an owner-occupied home, and renting the place out changes how it needs to be covered. A rental dwelling policy is built for a home you rent to others. Tell us what you have and we'll help you close the gap.

What is loss of rent coverage?

If a covered loss, like a fire, makes the unit unlivable while it's repaired, loss of rent coverage helps replace the income you would have collected in the meantime. It's one of the biggest reasons a landlord policy is worth having.

Do I need an umbrella policy?

Many landlords do. Renting to others adds liability exposure, and an umbrella sits on top of your rental and personal liability limits for serious claims. We can quote it alongside the dwelling so you see how the pieces fit.
