I would go to an insurance agent and ask.
The amount will vary, depending on what the landlord requires.
Shop around for the best rates.
If there is a Grange near you check them out. They handle insurance for several companies and will find you the best rates.
If you are a senior check with AARP. They also can find the lowest rates.
If the rental agency requires insurance, it's unlikely they will rent to you without it.
My home insurance runs about $270 per year for my house, a single family dwelling. But the insurance is based on the value of your home. A rental unit should be a lot less as you should only insure your personal belongings. If they want you to cover their property for fire and other hazzards, look for another rental unit.

I sell insurance in Connecticut. I'm guessing you're being asked to pay renter's insurance, which covers your personal property, not insurance on the building. You might be able to sign something saying "I take responsiblity for insuring my personal property" if you wish to avoid this. The landlord probably wants you to know that they are not insuring your stuff, and wants to be off the hook in case your stuff gets stolen or burnt or flooded. That's what's at the root of what's going on, if I were to guess. If by "flat" you mean you're in England, their laws are different, but it might be the same thing.

By the word "flat" I guess you must be in England. Here in America you can get a "rentors" insurance. But as far as one's property is concern, the owner is responsible for paying insurance, not the tenant.

in the beginning, you do not fail a credit verify based upon failure to be registered on the electoral roll. in case you have credit everywhere, you have got a credit history regardless. you ought to purely fail in case you have CCJ, financial ruin/IVA or severe long term poor credit. those quotes are generally absurd, in specific; Cancelling or non cost of tenant assurance - £one hundred twenty five+VAT you won't be able to be obligated to take out assurance, inspite of the reality that it is strongly counseled, nor are you compelled to apply any specific business enterprise of tenants content cloth assurance. Landlord Permission Request (for issues like allowing Sky to be linked) - £25+VAT You request permission in step with your tenancy settlement. If the agent refuses to correctly known a request to the owner for permission then consent has been unreasonably withheld. in spite of if the lease would not comprise particular wording that the consent is “to not be unreasonably withheld” it fairly is implied by using statute. in the event that they are relatively obtuse approximately it, write to the owner at once. in case you have not won the landlords handle on your tenancy settlement, you will be able to request it by using area a million of the owner and Tenant Act 1985. DISCLOSURE OF LANDLORD’S identity (a million) If the tenant of premises occupied as a living makes a written request for the owner’s call and handle to— (a) every person who demands, or the final individual who won, lease payable under the tenancy, or the different individual on the instant performing as agent for the owner, on the undertaking of the tenancy, that individual shall grant the tenant with a written fact of the owner’s call and handle interior the era of 21 days beginning up with the day on which he gets the request. (2) a individual who, without life like excuse, fails to conform with subsection (a million) commits a precis offence and is in charge on conviction to an excellent not exceeding point 4 on the conventional scale. it variety of feels those quotes are in place to establish you in no way touch them approximately something. is this business enterprise registered with the valuables Ombudsman? Arla? Safeagent? something? Their internet site would not point out any, and that i could be very very careful of them as an agent.
