How much is renters insurance in New York?

I recently got promoted at work and will finally be moving out of my small studio apartment. I need to purchase renters insurance before signing my new lease agreement. How much will renters insurance be in New York?

Congratulations on the promotion! I’m sure it is well deserved.
Typically, renters insurance is between $125 and $175 a year or $10 to $14 a month in
New York
. However, rates vary between companies and are dependent on several factors, like:
  • Location
  • Claim history
  • Credit score
  • Deductible
  • Coverage level
Since you’re moving to a new apartment, you’ll want to request quotes from several companies before making a decision. Shopping around and gathering multiple quotes is the only way to determine exactly how much renters insurance will cost for you and your new apartment.
If you’d rather leave the hard work of gathering quotes to someone else, use
Jerry
. The Jerry app collects quotes from top insurance companies, like Nationwide and Progressive, in seconds. And if you ever have any questions, friendly agents are just a text away!
