UK Insurance News

Letting insurance specialist HomeLet have launched a brand new product aimed specifically at the UK letting industry, called Landlord’s Insurance +.

The new product developed by HomeLet is launched this month and includes buildings and contents insurance and offers an unparalleled level of cover including Emergency Assistance and up to £500,000 of buildings cover as standard.

Key areas of cover include loss of rent or re-letting costs following a claim, enabling the landlord to recover rent for up to two years (up to £50,000) if something serious happens and the tenant is forced to move out.

HomeLet Managing Director John Boyle said;

“Landlords, particularly in today’s economy when unemployment and crime are both on the increase, are exposed to more risks than ever before. There’s a real need for a specialist insurance policy that covers landlords against the potential risk that they face. HomeLet’s Landlord’s Insurance+ is our most comprehensive and competitively priced landlord’s product to date.

It’s unlike anything else currently available on the market. One of the many benefits for example is automatic cover for kitchen fixtures and fittings and bathroom sanitaryware in leasehold properties within the contents section of cover.

When it comes to taking risk out of property rental, HomeLet is the specialist. We’ve been in the industry since the birth of buy-to-let, which means we have more experience than anyone else. We’ve used our specialist knowledge of the residential lettings industry to develop some of the most comprehensive and cost-effective products on the market today which is why we’re number one.”
