FAQ

  • What is considered short-term renting in Memphis?
    • In the insurance world, a property that is rented for less than 30 days at a time is typically considered short-term. A property in which the renter does not reside/live at the dwelling.

  • Why does my homeowner's policy not cover my Memphis short-term rental?
    • All homeowner's policies carry a "business activity exclusion". In other words, any claim involving a "business activity" could rightfully be denied.

  • Is my Memphis short-term rental really a business?
    • Yes. More and more cities like Austin, Santa Barbara, and Chicago are now requiring Memphis short-term rental owners to carry and pay for a business license, pay occupancy tax, and carry business liability insurance.

  • How do I get covered for business activity?
    • You buy a business insurance policy. Our policy is a business policy. It covers your business property (rental home/contents), business liability, and the business income it generates.

  • If I insure my Memphis short-term rental as a business, can I also stay there?
    • Yes. There are no standard occupancy restrictions on a business policy. This means the property is insured while you stay there, friends or family, and of course paying guests.

  • My Memphis short-term rental is also my primary residence, can I still purchase the Proper Policy?
    • Yes. If the Memphis short-term rental home is also your primary residence, Proper simply adds $1,000,000 in personal liability and $50,000 in loss of use to relocate in the event the property is being rebuilt. This is very important if you do not carry a homeowner's policy elsewhere.

  • What if I also live at the Memphis short-term rental, can I still purchase the Proper policy?
    • Yes. You have the same business exposure. We see every scenario imaginable. You live upstairs and short-term rent the downstairs. You live in the main home and rent out the guest house, etc.

  • If I have the Proper policy do I keep my homeowner's or landlord policy in place?
    • No. The Proper policy is designed to fully replace the current coverage you have. You would cancel your current policy.
