Home - Services - Landlord Insurance

Landlord insurance is insurance for landlords to protect their property and themselves (i.e., their liability).

Types of landlord insurance

There are three main types of landlord insurance, namely building insurance, contents insurance and liability insurance. Some policies will include extras and add-ons that provide landlords with further protection.

Landlord contents insurance

Landlord contents insurance covers the fixtures and furnishings within the property. For example, the policy may cover the cost of replacing a carpet in the event of a flood.

Landlord liability insurance

Landlord liability insurance covers you for the financial costs if anyone using your property suffers an accident due to the condition of the property, including electrical systems. The policy will pay out if you owe compensation.

How much does it cost?

The cost of landlord insurance will differ based on your rental properties and your needs. The number of prospective tenants and the location of the property can also influence costs.

How to make a claim?

To make a claim on any landlord insurance policy, you should contact the policy provider directly unless told otherwise.
