Why Choose Us?

Liability Coverage For Property Owners

Highly-rated insurance for unoccupied residences offers reassurance to homeowners who anticipate prolonged absences from their property. This coverage ensures protection against various potential hazards, including fire, theft, and weather-related or natural disasters.

Short & Long Term

Short & Long-Term Property Insurance offers flexible coverage options tailored to both brief and extended periods of property vacancy. From short periods to extended long term cover for renovations or sales processes.

What Is Unoccupied Property Insurance

Unoccupied property insurance is crucial for property owners who find themselves in situations where their property will be vacant for an extended period. Whether it’s due to renovations, awaiting sale, or any other reason, leaving a property unoccupied can expose it to various risks.

This insurance typically covers damages resulting from events like fire, vandalism, theft, burst pipes, and other unforeseen incidents. Without proper coverage, property owners could face significant financial losses if any of these events were to occur while the property is vacant.

Additionally, unoccupied property insurance may offer liability coverage, protecting the owner from potential legal claims if someone is injured on the property while it’s unoccupied.

Ask Our Experts

Unoccupied homes are more vulnerable to risks, vandalism, and damage from undetected issues like leaks or electrical faults. Unoccupied home insurance provides coverage specifically tailored to these risks, offering financial protection when you’re not occupying the property.

Generally, a home is considered unoccupied when it’s left vacant for an extended period, typically exceeding 30 or 60 consecutive days. This can occur due to various reasons, such as vacation, renovation, or the property being up for sale.

Coverage varies among insurance providers, but typical protections include damage caused by fire, theft, vandalism, and certain natural disasters. Additionally, policies may offer liability coverage in case someone is injured on the property while it’s unoccupied.

Like any insurance policy, there may be exclusions depending on the provider and policy specifics. Common exclusions might include damage due to neglect, certain types of maintenance-related issues, or specific perils not covered by the policy. Contact us for more details

Insurance premiums for unoccupied homes can be higher due to the increased risks. However, some strategies may help lower costs, such as installing security systems, having someone check on the property regularly, or making certain renovations to minimise risks.

When selecting a policy, it’s essential to consider factors like coverage limits, deductibles, the reputation of the insurance provider, and any additional features or endorsements offered. Comparing quotes from multiple insurers can also help find the best coverage at a competitive price. Contact us to compare multiple offers with our panel.
