They do this because in the event of a liability claim, that tenant has coverage and it lessens the risk of that claim hitting the apartment owners policy and driving up their premiums.As a landlord, I would require my tenants to have a renters policy with a min. of 500K in liability coverage.

Property managers are worth their weight in gold if you have a good one.
