Unoccupied property insurance

For properties being renovated or those empty between tenancies

Protection for empty residential and commercial properties

Unoccupied property insurance is designed to give landlords and property owners peace of mind when a property is empty for longer than a regular policy will allow. Whether you’re renovating, between tenants, or facing an unexpected vacancy this cover can provide a layer of protection. 

What cover could be included in an unoccupied property insurance policy?

Buildings cover

Buildings insurance can cover the cost of repairs or even rebuilding your property if it is severely damaged. Whether it’s a burst pipe causing water damage or a fallen tree damaging the roof, buildings insurance can help make sure you’re not left facing big repair bills to pay. 

Property owner’s liability

As a property owner, you may have a legal responsibility for the safety of your tenants and any visitors. If someone is injured on your property or grounds due to your negligence, they could choose to take legal action against you. Property owner's liability insurance helps protect you against these types of claims.  

Subsidence

An optional cover that can protect your property from unexpected damage caused by the ground moving beneath it. Subsidence can be caused by several factors, but the results are similar: cracks in walls, uneven floors, and potential structural instability. Subsidence cover could pay for investigating the cause of movement, stabilising the foundation if necessary and repairing damage to the property structure.
