I had an excellent experience with Surex, thanks to Dayana Nuñez. She was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient throughout the entire process. She took the time to answer all my questions, explained my coverage options clearly, and helped me find the best solution for my needs without making me feel pressured.

One thing that really stood out was that she speaks Spanish, which made the entire experience even more comfortable and stress-free. It's a huge advantage for Spanish-speaking clients.

I highly recommend Surex, and especially Dayana, if you're looking for outstanding customer service and a smooth insurance experience.

Ashley was so lovely. It is my first time owning and registering my car for insurance. She walked me through every step of the way and helped me get the best price. She is amazing at what she does and I will be telling people to go with Surex from here on out. Thanks so much Ashley. I couldn’t have done it without you.

Tenant insurance in Yellowknife - What You Need to Know

Tenant insurance in Yellowknife (also called renters’ insurance) is meant for people who rent the place where they live, whether home, condo, or apartment. It provides the best insurance coverage against common risks like theft, fire damage, and personal injury that occurs on the property.

Tenant insurance is necessary because a landlord’s home insurance policy won’t cover these perils on behalf of the renter.

No, tenant insurance is not required by law in Yellowknife. However, many property managers won’t lease their units without tenant insurance coverage in place.

Yes! Always consider it. If you can afford it, renters insurance is usually worth it. It will protect your belongings, provide liability coverage, and may cover your personal items when you travel. Renter's insurance protects you from a long list of perils, as well.

Yes, tenant insurance and renter’s insurance are the same. They are policies purchased by a renter to protect themselves financially.

The price of your tenant insurance in Fredericton depends on where you reside, the value of your total contents, your liability limits. Policies normally start at $300/yr and increase as the content values and liability limits increase.

Many different factors will impact the cost of your tenant insurance coverage. Here are the main ones to consider when getting a quote:


1. Property Type
2. Location
3. Personal Belongings
4. Credit Score
5. Pets
6. Living Situation
7. Insurance History
8. Applicable Discounts

Yes, tenant insurance and renter’s insurance are the same. They are policies purchased by a renter to protect themselves financially.

A landlord’s insurance policy may cover tenant damage (i.e. vandalism or accidental destruction of property). However, it depends on the policy, including factors such as the landlord’s deductible.

Typically, a tenant insurance policy covers only the policyholder’s belongings. You can purchase insurance jointly, however, but don’t assume you’re automatically covered by your housemate’s policy because you probably aren’t unless specified.
