Does the new student need Renters Insurance?

If you're a parent, it's no secret to you that today's college bound student leaves home with a little more than a pen and pencil. Computers, stereos, TVs… and don't forget clothing! They (or you) have paid good money for all of these things and you might want to consider Renters Insurance. This is especially true if your student is living on his or her own. Most Homeowners Insurance policies severely limit the amount of coverage afforded to personal property kept off the insured premises. To play it safe, contact your Farmers agent to review whether you have the right coverage for your college bound son or daughter.
