You need short term rental insurance for one simple fact...
Short term rentals are considered a business activity, and homeowners insurance usually excludes business-related claims. That's why you need proper short term rental insurance coverage.
As a short term rental owner, once you list your property on sites like AirBnB, VRBO or money changes hands, your homeowners insurance, landlord policy, pay-as-you-go policy, or host guarantee may not cover you the way you REALLY need it to. Consider these situations :
- What if you are sued by a renter who gets injured on your property?
- What if a renter accidentally causes damage to your property or its contents?
- What if your property incurs damage while it's unoccupied?
You can be held liable for these types of scenarios! That is why it is important to have short term rental liability insurance.
