Protecting my assets
Can I protect my investment property?
Here are a few things you should consider in protecting your property and yourself as a landlord.
Damage to your investment property
You probably have a standard building insurance policy in place to cover events such as fire, storm, earthquake and burglary. You can use this Home building value calculator to ensure you are adequately covered, or to see how much you should be insuring your property for.
Damage caused by the tenants and loss of rent
Few building insurance policies cover malicious damage or theft caused by tenants, or loss of rent if a tenant defaults - all serious concerns for you as the landlord. Our optional Landlord Extras cover will provide you with the cover you need.
Loss of income and ability to meet repayments
Since there are a variety of things that can happen to you, we offer a range of protection policies offering either a lump sum payment or monthly benefit for future peace of mind.
For more information on income protection refer to No Income? Lots of worries.
