If you are one of the many UK landlords who rely on monthly payments from tenants to ensure your income; then you are not alone. But in this current climate especially; even the best-meaning tenants in the world can suddenly find themselves facing circumstances outside of their control; finding themselves unable to pay their rent – and leaving you, of course, in an unenviable situation. Considering rent guarantee insurance? There might just be a better option…
Landlord Rent Guarantee Insurance
It’s perfectly natural (especially in the current climate) that you would be considering rent guarantee insurance.
You are seeking peace of mind; but not every rent guarantee is created equal.
If you are considering a rental guarantee scheme; it’s essential that you have a full understanding of exactly what it is that your rent guarantee covers. Whilst you can most likely reclaim money through the insurance company; it’s also possible that you may only be able to get a portion of it back. Plus – it can be a huge drain on your time and resources.
Rental Insurance Options
If you are on the look-out for rent guarantee insurance; then you’ll need to consider the following points.
- How much are you entitled to claim in a year?
- What is the excess fee when claiming?
- What are the exclusions from your policy?
- Has your tenant been referenced – and could this affect your policy conditions?
Policies and the Pandemic
It’s also important to note that fewer and fewer policies are paying out for COVID-related claims. So it is absolutely vital that you understand exactly what is covered and what isn’t.
