    Why you need short-term rental insurance in New York

    New York has strict landlord-tenant laws that tend to benefit the tenant more than the landlord. There is a rent control law in place, and the eviction periods can take a long time (1-5 months). However, New York can be a lucrative rental market, and there is a high demand for rentals, with 67% of the people renting over ownership.

    As a landlord in New York, it’s important to get protected by landlord insurance to prepare for the unexpected. The state is known for its competitive and expensive real estate market. Thankfully, New York doesn’t experience as many natural disasters as other states in the nation. However, getting landlord insurance will protect you from certain liabilities, such as a tenant slipping on your stairs.

    Who is short-term rental insurance for?
