What is Buy-to-let Landlord Insurance?
Being a landlord and renting out properties to tenants can not only be a profitable business, but an enjoyable experience too – especially when you have the right insurance in place to protect you should anything go wrong. Even if you have the best tenants who keep the properties clean and tidy, sometimes burst pipes occur and require fixing, the environment steps in and causes flooding and storm damage, or for whatever reason, tenants refuse to pay their rent. You shouldn’t have to foot the bill, and with a Buy-to-let Landlord Insurance policy, we can ensure you have the right level of cover. With The Insurance Octopus, you get to choose the protection you need, based on professional support from a Feefo Platinum awarded company. With adaptable payment methods and access to top-rated insurers, you can’t go wrong with the right policy from us.
Let’s find you that insurance quote. Simply fill in our form, or request a call back, and we’ll guide you through the process. And, should your business expand, or your requirements change, then your policy can change with it, without any charge for administration fees for mid-term adjustments, ever. That’s our promise to you.
