Why Union County hosts need short-term rental insurance
Union County's short-term rental market near NYC and Newark Airport is active, with hosts often unaware their home policy excludes rental activity. A standard homeowners policy excludes rental activity, so the moment you take a paying guest, you may have no coverage at all.
What short-term rental insurance covers in Union County
- Dwelling & Property — the home, furnishings, and contents you rent to guests.
- Host / Premises Liability — guest injuries and property-damage claims during a stay.
- Lost Rental Income — income when a covered loss makes the property unrentable.
- Contents & Theft — damage or theft of the furnishings you provide.
