Does my landlord's insurance cover my stuff?

No. Your landlord insures the building. Your belongings and your liability need your own policy.

Can my roommate share my policy?

Each roommate needs their own policy, unless you are married or partners on the same lease.

When can coverage start?

As soon as 12:01 AM tomorrow, or any date in the next 60 days. Your proof of insurance arrives by email.
