Require Residents to be Insured

We highly recommend that your lease specifies that your residents are liable for damages caused to the building by their negligence and the negligence of their guests. We recommend that you require your residents to obtain liability insurance naming you and your property as additional insured. We suggest that the required limit of their liability insurance be at least $100,000.
