Landlord Insurance Cover
Landlord Insurance vs. Home Insurance
Standard home insurance isn’t designed for rental properties. Landlord insurance provides tailored cover for risks associated with tenants and property letting. It can protect your investment from events that traditional home insurance may exclude.
What’s Typically Included?
A comprehensive landlord policy often includes:
- Buildings insurance (for structural damage)
- Contents insurance (for landlord-owned items)
- Liability cover (if a tenant is injured)
- Loss of rent (if the property becomes uninhabitable)
- Legal expenses (e.g., evictions, disputes)
Optional Add-ons to Consider
Many insurers offer add-ons such as:
- Malicious damage by tenants
- Rent guarantee insurance
- Emergency repairs
Novellus Property Management can help ensure you’re fully protected. We advise all our landlords on getting the right policy for their unique circumstances.
Why It’s Essential for Buy-to-Let Landlords
Without proper insurance, you could face huge out-of-pocket costs in the event of:
- Fire or flood damage
- Tenant accidents
- Unexpected legal fees
With Manchester’s busy rental market, the right cover gives landlords vital peace of mind.
