However, the landlord will require a housing insurance certificate in order to finalize the rental. Thus, it is mandatory to have a certificate of insurance in your possession.

The packages covered by the warranty depend on each subscriber. It can be a basic offer, a civil liability offer, or a more complete guarantee. The first offer includes compensation in case of fire, water damage, explosion, theft or vandalism. The second offer covers all damages that can be caused to another person.

Once you have checked your documents and signed your quote, you will immediately receive your insurance certificate. You can attach it to your supporting documents to sign your rental contract.

Nevertheless, don’t forget to ask about the terms of your offer before signing. Also, to explain the vague terms of your commitment, don’t hesitate to ask an assistant for advice.
