Damage protection coverage for midterm rentals
Is there a third-party company that offers Damage Protection coverage for midterm rentals? Specifically for 2-6 month stays. Searching on the internet mainly results in regular landlord insurance. Since a mid-term stay could technically last for 60 days, is that a Damage Protection coverage for reservations this long similar to AirCover? I accept Direct Bookings by the way, and some are sourced from sites like Furnished Finder.

Hi Tim, I know Proper and Steadily are common insurance choices for MTR owners. While I'm not sure specifically if they or any companies that offer Damage Protection coverage for 2 - 6 month stays, I know some people require a security deposit for longer stays (sometimes only half month) to mitigate damage risk and sometimes renters insurance as well. If you're worried about damage, I think some form of security deposit for longer stays makes sense.
