The answer depends on the type of property you're renting and whether it's your primary residence. --- ###### When can I purchase tenant insurance? Group Tenant Insurance is intended for your primary residenceā€”the place where you normally live. If you're renting a home, apartment, condo, or similar property as your primary residence, you may be eligible to purchase coverage. --- ###### What about Airbnb or vacation rentals? Short-term accommodations such as: * Airbnb * VRBO * Vacation rentals * Hotels * Motels are generally **not eligible** for Group Tenant Insurance because they aren't intended to be your permanent residence. --- ###### What if I'm staying there for an extended period? If you're living in a short-term rental while relocating, renovating your home, or waiting to move into a permanent residence, eligibility may depend on your specific situation and the length and purpose of your stay. If you're unsure whether the property qualifies, contact our Support team before purchasing a policy.
