Landlords Home Insurance
Our online
landlords home insurance quotation service for insuring a home in the UK where the tenant is not the property owner. We have
several companies quoting for your needs.
Types of tenant
Our landlord home insurance policy depends on the type of tenant that lives in your house
or home.
- Professional Let - the tenant pays the rent
on the home direct to you as landlord.
- Subsidised Let - the rental agreement is
with the tenant in your home but part of the rent is paid
by another person such as the DSS. This is not the same as
- DSS Let: The rental agreement is between
yourself as landlord and the DSS - who have the right to change the
actual tenant as and when they please.
- Student Let: The home is let to
several students. The rate is higher as the tenants are young, know
they will only live in the home for a very few years and probably
don't have the same respect for the building as you do.
- Bed-sits: Property let on short-term
contracts - frequently to multiple tenants and maybe including
cooking in rooms rather than shared facilities. This increased fire
risk is reflected in the premium quoted
- asylum seekers: This is a variation of a DSS
let as the agreement cannot be between the landlord and the asylum
seeker. These are amongst the most expensive policies
- Holiday Homes: We differentiate whether the
home is for just your own (and friends/ family) or is let out on a
commercial basis. We can offer quotations for holiday houses both in
the UK and abroad (France, Spain, Eire, Cyprus and Portugal) on our quote engine.
