There are excluded or limited items, such as cash, electronics, collections and such that may need to be looked at specifically and insured by riders or endorsements to a basic policy, if they choose to insure over those limited amounts.The issue for you is the liability coverage they obtain under a tenant's policy, that's the only concern you have and that could reduce your liability issues, so you should check with your agent.Many variables will apply in determining their liability issues and yours as well as how and when your insurance may be affected with any claim arising from negligence of a tenant.
