Residential buildings insurance
Who it’s for
If you own a building or property and rent this out to either a private tenant or tenants or you rent the building to a business. Or if you are a member of a management company or management association looking for property, buildings or flats insurance. You will be able to purchase a property owners insurance policy.
This policy may also be called a buildings insurance, residential property insurance, buy to let insurance or landlords insurance.
Why it’s important - examples
Most insurance companiues offer a property owners policy or buildings insurance package insurance policy. A property owners policy is also suitable for blocks of flats where a management company, owned by the individual occupiers of the flats needs to arrange a block of flats insurance policy.
A property owners policy, whether a commercial or residential policy, can include cover for buildinsg, fixed glass, landlords contents, contents of common parts (ie communal hallways), loss of rental income, loss of rental expenditure, the cost of alternative accomodation and property owners liability or public liability.
