Landlord Insurance
Landlord insurance. Keeping your investments safe.
Our insurance is designed specifically for landlords, buy-to-let owners and management companies, and so far more than 170,000 landlords have already taken the direct line.
We’ve helped thousands of landlords get their properties back into action quickly and efficiently using their own networks for repairs as well as our own. (Claims settled on an individual basis.)
We make the claims process easier for landlords with dedicated personal claims handlers, and by enabling landlords to nominate a contact, so we can liaise directly with their letting agents, tenants or family members.
If you would like to insure both residential and commercial properties on the same policy click here
To insure student rentals, or more than 5 properties, please call us on 0845 303 1763.
