Rental Property Insurance
Tennessee Landlord Insurance
One of the best investments you can make is real estate and there are a lot of different options to consider in Tennessee. Perhaps you would like to buy a large apartment complex with many units. Maybe you wish to start out with a small apartment building, a strip mall or several single family homes. Regardless of your needs, you need to have the right kind of insurance to protect your interests. Without the proper coverage, you might be leaving yourself open to some major losses and some could be catastrophic. Let’s look at the example of Paul.
Paul worked for many years as manager of a restaurant in Bristol. He thought about owning his own restaurant someday and had saved up quite a bit of money. However, as Paul was researching options he realized that being a landlord may be less risky than being a restaurant owner. He found a local apartment building with 12 units for sale.
Paul thought the building was a good buy and he went to his insurance professional for advice. His agent was independent and had several insurance company policies he could offer Paul. The experienced agent helped Paul choose a comprehensive business insurance policy that covered all his risk factors. Choosing the right insurance professional was the smartest thing Paul could do because when the time came to file a claim, he was properly covered. At Veritas Risk Management, we believe that we are the right agent for you! We have the experience and expertise to find the best protection possible.
