Do you need renter’s insurance?

I’m lucky.  My mother has worked at Barry Insurance for as long as I can remember, so I’ve always had the right insurance to meet my needs, right when I needed it.  Before I even knew I needed insurance, the policy was there waiting for me to sign it.  Had my mother not been in the insurance business, I’m sure there would have been times when I would have never known what insurance I needed, or how to get it. 

In particular, I remember moving into my first apartment.  Before moving day even arrived, my mother sat me down to talk about renter’s insurance.  I gave her a confused look and asked, “They have that?”  As I soon found out, they do!  And even better, it’s affordable.  For only $10.58 a month, I was able to get $300,000 dollars of liability coverage – in case I burned the place down, which would be an easy feat for an accident prone individual like me.  And I got $25,000 dollars of personal property coverage on my stuff – in case I left my keys in the door again and someone stole it all.   

I was lucky to have my mom, and Barry Insurance, there to look out for me.  Remember, we’re here to look out for you, too!
