Landlord Insurance

A rental property is an investment, and it needs different coverage than the home you live in. The Stewart Agency works with Tulsa property owners to review their rentals, explain their options, and compare coverage from multiple carriers.

What a Landlord Policy Covers

The Building

Damage to the structure from covered events such as fire, wind, and hail.

Other Structures

Detached garages, fences, and sheds on the property.

Lost Rent

Income you lose while a covered loss keeps the property from being rented.

Liability

Protection if a tenant or visitor is injured and holds you responsible.

DP-1 vs. DP-3

DP-1

Covers a short list of named events and often pays the depreciated value of the damage.

DP-3

Covers a broader range of losses and often pays replacement cost on the building.

We walk you through the difference so you can choose the level of protection that fits the property.

What Oklahoma Landlords Should Review

  • Wind and hail deductibles. These are often a percentage of the dwelling limit rather than a flat dollar amount.
  • Roof age and roof coverage terms. Some carriers limit payment on older roofs.
  • Vacancy rules. Many policies restrict coverage once a property sits empty for an extended period.
  • Renters insurance for your tenants. It covers their belongings and their own liability.
  • An umbrella policy. It adds liability protection beyond the limits of your individual policies.

Common Questions

Generally not. Homeowners policies are written for the home you live in, so a rental usually needs its own landlord policy.
Often, yes. Many standard landlord policies exclude or limit short-term rentals, so the policy should match how the property is used.
Yes. We can write coverage in the name of the LLC and coordinate policies across multiple properties.
