Landlord Contents Insurance
Landlord contents insurance provides cover for the contents you decide to leave for a tenant when you rent out a full or part-furnished property. Landlord contents insurance does not provide cover for your tenant’s personal possessions but will provide insurance for the furnishings, fixtures, and fittings you have in the property such as fridges, beds, sofas, carpets, tables etc. Our contents calculator can help you estimate the value of the contents in your property.
Landlord contents insurance from as little as £56 per property including Insurance Premium Tax:
- Domestic furniture and furnishings including carpets, curtains, blinds, light fittings, and white goods.
- Accidental damage.
- £5m property owners’ liability cover.
- £10m employers’ liability cover.
- Lock replacement if your keys are stolen.
- Loss of metered utility supplies.
- Optional loss or rent or alternative accommodation cover.
