Im trying to find earthquake insurance for renters

[Sedona]

I'm not having much luck. I've checked with all the companies in the state EQ insurance website. Does anyone know an LA insurance agent that can help?

1. Are you looking for stand alone insurance?

In the past you could put a rider on your renters insurance policy to cover contents and housing displacement. I'm really surprised none of these companies (californiarocks.com/find-an-insurance-company) could assist.

:goodluck:

2. I cant find anyone even offering riders.

3. while you checked the state insurance website, you might try calling/emailing the insurance commish

directly.... Obviously you won't talk to him/her, but surely someone can help research this for you.

'Hard to believe this would be so hard to find in CA

5. If you find it at all, you probably won't want to pay it.

Better to set aside what you consider to be a reasonable premium in an investment account to help defray replacement costs if you suffer a loss.

They did it as a rider on regular rental insurance. Yay!

8. I own an apt/commercial bldg

in L.A. and there's no way I could afford earthquake ins. My bldg. is 99 yrs old so I like to think it's pretty well built!
