Any recommendations for a landlord insurance policy? Currently, all of my insurance policies are through State Farm but apparently they don't offer a landlord policy for rental homes.

Also, should I expect to pay more, less or about the same for a landlord policy versus a homes owners policy on the same single family home?

TIA

I'd expect to pay less for a landlord policy because a homeowner policy typically covers personal property inside the home, whereas that is not included in landlord policy.

Are you talking about a dwelling policy?

Or securing the credit risk?

The contents piece is certainly less, but the risks are increased because the property is not owner occupied. Typically an owner would care more than renters

Mine dropped by $800 or so a year when I switched from resident to leasing out the house. Same company though (Liberty Mutual).

Had ASI for homeowner's, and I stuck with ASI for landlord. Price dropped a couple hundred for the annual premium.

That's odd I have a premium notice on my desk for a rental property in MS from State Farm.

Rental Policy Special Form
Dwelling $82,000
Dwelling Ext. (other structures) 8,290
Personal Property 4,145
Business Liability 300,000/600,000
Medical Pay to Others 1,000
Deductible 1,000
Annual Premium 451

Had a tornado claim on this property in 2014. State Farm paid no problems inc. $3000 to get a tree of the fence and 1 week of lost rent due to power being out at the home. The house power line was pulled from the weather head and TVA main power line was laying across the driveway. Total claim was about 10,000.

I'm not sure where you're located, but I just switched all mine to Pazos in Covington. They were extremely easy to deal with.
