In response to "Our apartment complex is now asking us to get renter's insurance with them listed on the policy. Has anyone here ever had this happen? -- nm" by David

why would they need to be listed on the policy?

and if they want to be on the policy, they should be the ones to pay for it.

- we have to do this when we rent film equipment. you just get a 'named insured certificate', it shouldn't even cost anything. - Andie May 10, 11:31
- My first paranoid thought is elaborate scam. -- nm - Reagen May 10, 11:23 7
  - the only thing I can think of is it's their way of trying to get around having to carry liability insurance. -- nm - znufrii May 10, 11:24 4
    - That wouldn't work, but I could see them trying to get the renter's insurance to split costs on some losses. -- nm - Nightcrawler May 10, 11:25 3
      - but my renter's covers only my possessions, none of theirs, so I don't see how that works. -- nm - loosilu May 10, 11:26 2

        Your nickname, while neat, is really throwing me for a loop today :) I think I keep mistaking you for Nitemare or something. -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) May 10, 11:42
