Things are defiantly changing in todays homeownership. Though the market is at an all time high for buying, studies show that more and more millennials are holding off on buying there first home and renting more. We could try and pin point why but it can come down to serval different reasons; student debt, location, or still living at home. So many have gone down the path to renting.
So while renting in many cases can be a smart move for millennials, one thing that isn’t so smart would be skipping out on renter insurance. This mistake could come 
back and bite you when you think you really are fine without it.
Studies have shown that an estimated 56% of young-adult renters don’t have insurance to protect themselves from property loss. And while the desire to save money on premiums might play a role in that decision, 40% of millennials who rent say they don’t feel they need insurance.
The Facts
Most people don’t have the financial means (dipping into your own personal bank account) to replace all there items in there homes if something happened. But sometimes they also live in a world where they think it won’t happen to me. Isn’t that what insurance is for? You hope that it will never happen but if something does its there to help you!
