No. A renters policy would cover a renters loss, Not the Home owner.

Actually a homeowners form HO-4 is for renters. It provides similar coverage to a "normal" homeowners policy with the exception of not covering the home itself. There are many homeowners forms for different situations. HO-8 OS for condos, HO-10 is primarily for older homes that you don't want to cover for replacement cost so you insure it for the real estate value so you aren't penalized on claims for carrying less than the replacement cost of the home, etc.

What is difference between home owners insurance and rental property insurance?

Other than home owners insurance covering your primary residence where you live and rental property insurance covering a home that you rent to others there are a few differences in types of coverage. While most home owners policies cover the building you live in as well as your contents (TV, Clothes, etc...), most rental property policies cover only the building. This is because in a rental property situation you usually do not own the contents inside and the renters have renters insurance to cover their own contents.
