You may be eligible for reimbursement of moving costs if your personal belongings are damaged by an insured event, such as a fire, flood, or robbery, and your apartment becomes uninhabitable as a direct result.

It is important to note that general moving costs are not covered by this policy. For example, if you decide to move for personal reasons, such as a job change, relocation, or simply wanting a new apartment.

If your move is due to structural damage to the building itself (which would usually be covered by the property owner’s building insurance), those costs also aren’t covered. Our policy only steps in when you need to move because an insured event has directly affected your personal belongings, like your furniture or household items.
