What does our policy cover?

RENT PROTECTION

Protection if the tenant doesn’t pay their rent until vacant possession is achieved.

RENT RECOVERY

We’ll pursue tenants on your behalf to recover outstanding rent from them.

EVICTION OF TENANTS OR SQUATTERS

Tenants who can’t meet the requirements of their tenancy agreement or squatters who are living in your landlord’s property without their consent will be evicted - and we’ll manage the legal proceedings.

PROPERTY DAMAGE

Legal cover to pursue tenants for damage to the property of more than £1,000. Plus, up to £250 paid where the tenant causes damage to the property above and beyond the deposit amount.

£100,000 LIMIT OF INDEMNITY

The total amount payable in the event of a claim.

CONTRACT DISPUTES

Cost and expenses for a dispute with a party whom you have a direct contractual relationship with.

ALTERNATIVE ACCOMMODATION AND STORAGE COSTS

If your landlord needs to move back into the property once vacant possession has been gained, we will pay for their alternative accommodation and storage costs for up to 30 day
