Outstanding Service

Veronique Abbott Is the Insurance Advisor that helped me with my motorcycle insurance. I was very impressed by the timeliness and ease of setting up the insurance with her. I then realized I needed to change the effective date and she did this after hours before a holiday weekend. Outstanding service that I greatly appreciated. Thank you

I’ve had a great experience with Surex

I’ve had a great experience with Surex, especially working with Jessica B. She is extremely helpful and always responds quickly whenever I have questions or need assistance. Recently, I had some banking fraud issues that caused missed insurance payments, and Jessica was there every step of the way to help us get everything sorted out and reinstated without added stress. Her professionalism and responsiveness made a difficult situation much easier to handle. I highly recommend Surex and especially Jessica B. for anyone looking for reliable and supportive insurance service.

Tenant Insurance in Yukon

This depends on where you reside, the value of your total contents, and your liability limits. Policies normally start at $300/yr or around $20 to $50 /month and increase as the content values and liability limits increase.

Since there’s no minimum coverage requirement, you can achieve lower rates by purchasing only the coverage you need. Think about your personal belongings and get the policy and the coverage you need.

You’ll need to provide basic information about yourself and the property you’re renting if you want to get insurance online over over the phone, including:

  • The address
  • The cumulative value of your personal property
  • Who else will be occupying the rental property (you want to make sure that all renters are covered under their own policies.

Tenant insurance is not mandatory at the provincial level, however many property managers won’t lease their units without tenant insurance coverage in place. Renters in Yukon can expect that getting a personal insurance policy quote is a part of renting.

The following things are generally covered by the best tenant insurance Yukon:

  1. Contents

If your belongings are damaged or stolen while in your rental property, tenant's insurance will help cover the cost of replacement or repair.  

This is among the most important aspects of tenant's insurance since most people don’t have the money to replace thousands of dollars in lost items out-of-pocket.

  1. Liability

If an accident on your property causes financial harm to a third party, tenant’s insurance with personal liability coverage can help cover lawsuit and settlement costs. 

For example, if a guest slips, falls, and injures themselves on a wet floor in an apartment you’re renting, your insurance policy will shield you from the financial fallout of a potential lawsuit.

  1. Relocation cost reimbursement

If the property you’re renting is rendered uninhabitable, tenant insurance will help shoulder the costs of relocating, and your living expenses.

For example, if you’re forced to stay at a hotel for a few weeks because your rental apartment flooded, tenant insurance may help with your hotel bill along with the cost of purchasing meals and other living expenses.

Tenant insurance in Yukon typically won’t cover replacement costs above a certain amount for extraordinarily expensive items (i.e. jewelry). To make sure you’re covered for the items that matter most to you, it’s important that you read the policy thoroughly. The best insurance broker can help you find the exact policy you need.

Tenant insurance is rated based on the type of unit you rent, number of tenants in the unit, value of your contents, physical location of the unit, prior tenant or home claims in the past under your name.

The best tenant insurance provider depends on how your situation fits into the formula companies create to evaluate policyholders. For example, some insurance companies might weigh your age more heavily than others. This is why it’s a good idea to compare insurance companies with Surex. The cheapest online insurance provider isn’t always evident

The law does permit landlords to include an insurance policy as a lease requirement. Many landlords do so as a tenant’s policy serves to reduce their overall risk.

You’ll need to provide basic information about yourself and the property you’re renting if you want to get insurance online over over the phone, including:

  • The address
  • The cumulative value of your personal property
  • Who else will be occupying the rental property (you want to make sure that all renters are covered under their own policies.
