Q: Do I need earthquake insurance as a renter?
A: You're generally not required to buy earthquake insurance as a renter. But even if your landlord has earthquake insurance for the building, their policy won’t cover your belongings inside your rental home.
If you live in earthquake prone areas and worried about the earthquake damage that would be caused, its better to get separate earthquake insurance policy.
