Vacation Rental , airbnb Insurance

Jaago Viitkin

Hi Everybody,

I am an airbnb host and renting out space in my 2 family home. I live in one of the rooms.

I was wondering what kind of liability insurance other airbnb hosts are using?

( vacation rentals, homeaway, VRBO )

Thank you

CBIZ is insurance designed specifically for vacation rental owners, we have them on all 4 of our Vacation Rental properties. 

If you have a claim on a vacation rental that is only covered by homeowners you will most likely not be compensated...if it's a liability claim could then become a legal issue...so it is definitely something to be concerned about. 

Many homeowners policies allow you to rent 2-4 weeks or so only. Check your policy.
