The landlord doesn't know I have a roommate, or he would charge us more rent. The roommate only has liability on his car. The dent is pretty big. It is from a tree on the landlords property, I think. He said I should call the landlord and say he just stopped by (when the branch fell) & see if his homeowners insurance covers it, but he would have to pay a deductible. What should I do? I have renters insurance but I am pretty sure it only covers things inside, not the property since I don't own it. I didn't know my rommate was moving in with 3 cars when we agreed on him moving in, (he's planning to sell one or two, I guess). Before the branch fell he saw the trees were dead & unstable and still parked under there, we talked about it. What do you think?
