subject: Insurance In Extreme Cases Will Also Cover Any Damages [print this page] We have now looked at all the benefits of the various insurances that can be taken out by landlords. Landlords building insurance is the one that covers the building all other fixtures and fittings including any fittings that you may have in the garden such as a shed. This also covers the fixtures such as your boiler or any electrical appliances. This will be the best insurance policy for landlords that are providing an empty property to tenants with the bare minimum contents. So there will be no point of getting landlord contents insurance as you will most likely be paying a higher premium than you need to pay. Rental property insurance will be ideal for landlords that will be looking to have the whole property covered against any kind of damage. This enables the landlords to have the peace of mind and the financial assurance that all costs relating to damages will be covered by the insurance company.
Landlord contents insurance is one of the most common insurance policies drawn by the landlords. As the most valuable and most expensive thing in a property are its contents. The issue is that when a tenant damages certain content, they might feel that the content was aged and is not really worth a lot. But the landlord has to replace the content with new products, so it costs them as much as buying something new. So with having rental property insurance this cost of replacing damaged goods is covered by the insurance company. But you have to be able to provide proof to the purchase to the insurance company to prove how much it would cost you replace the good in question. So it is really important for landlords to ensure that they have safely filed away any receipts that they may have from when they purchased these goods. Landlord building insurance in extreme cases will also cover any damage caused by a third party. I am only aware of this as once someone had driven into someone front garden by accident so they had damaged the wall and the front fence of the house and after talking to the landlord he was assured that this damage was covered by his insurance company, but the only problem was that he had to pay a higher premium for his insurance policy the following year.
So to ensure that you can keep your rental property insurance premiums to a minimum in the following years it is wise to carry out some of the repair works yourself rather than getting the insurance company involved. The same factors apply to the landlords content insurance so only claim against the expensive items if they are damaged. Landlord building insurance premiums will also be calculated for the next year depending on how many times you claim from your insurance.
