Do you require rental insurance for Furnised Finders tenants?

[Alena Beecher-Ritchie]

Hello Fam, 

I own a STR mainly utilizing AIRBNB. However, I have an interest in Furnished Finders. However, FF does not offer any protection for the homeowner. How do you go about this? The prospective tenant would like to stay for 4 months. Should I require rental insurance from them?

Please let me know what your thoughts are.

Hey Alena, I do require rental insurance for my MTR residents. I usually recommend the bare minimum coverage so it's not such a financial burden for them, but still give you protection. Whenever we get to signing lease agreements I ask for them to provide proof of coverage. I do use FF as well, but I don't believe they give you any form of protection.
