New Jersey residents who rent or lease a condo, home, or apartment can add the coverage to their auto insurance quote or existing auto policy. By doing so, they'll become eligible for the Renters Plus™ discount*, which can provide additional savings on their car insurance premium.

There are three great reasons to get renters coverage from Esurance:

1. It protects you and your personal belongings -- it can cover accident-related medical expenses that occur in your apartment or rental home and replace clothing and other personal items that were stolen or destroyed in a fire in a covered incident
2. It's affordable -- coverage costs $11 a month on average**, but replacing a stolen HDTV could cost ten times that
3. It extends to more than just your residence -- a laptop stolen from your car is a covered incident under an Esurance renters policy

Current Esurance customers with a New Jersey car insurance policy can add renters coverage today by simply calling 1-800-378-7262.

Esurance empowers people to make smart choices about their car insurance by offering easy-to-use online tools, such as Express Lane™ and Coverage Counselor®, comparison quotes, and a convenient mobile app, along with 24/7 customer service. The company is backed by Allstate, the largest publicly held personal lines insurer in the U.S.

*The Renters Plus discount will be applied as long as the renters coverage remains on the policy; if renters coverage is removed from policy, the discount will no longer be applied.

**Your premium will depend on the details of your selected coverage and your specific property. Coverages and discounts are subject to availability and qualifications. Terms, conditions, limits, and exclusions will apply.
