Dwelling Landlord Insurance
Dwelling landlord insurance is the recognized coverage choice for those looking to safeguard their rental properties, seasonal and secondary homes, and other residences without permanent occupancy. Landlord insurance differs from homeowner's insurance in that the policy holder must be a permanent resident to qualify for homeowner's insurance. Those in need of landlord insurance policies include landlords, investment property owners, and people who own properties that are currently vacant, including homes under construction. G & H will provide you with the landlord insurance coverage possible.
A landlord policy can provide multiple levels of coverage and can include coverage for the following categories, which can be personalized to your individual needs.
- The Dwelling
This coverage applies directly to your rental property. In the event of a covered loss, payments would be made to this coverage to repair the property.
- Other Structures
This covers other buildings located on your property — such as garages, sheds, gazebos or barns — with similar protections to those you receive under dwelling coverage.
- Contents
Any contents owned by the landlord but kept on the rental property would be eligible to be protected by this coverage. This coverage applies to any contents stored by the landlord on the property as well as any furnishings provided by the landlord to the tenants.
- Fair Rental Value
If the tenants can no longer on the property because of a loss, we'll reimburse you for the lost rents you incur until the property is livable again.
- Liability
If an accident occurs on your property which causes personal injury or property damage to others, general liability coverage can protect you. This coverage can be provided in varying amounts, and it includes the cost of defending yourself against potential lawsuits.
- Medical Payments to Others
This coverage helps to pay for the medical expenses of anyone injured on the property, regardless of who is at fault.
Here are some perils our dwelling landlord insurance policies can cover:
- Fire and smoke damage
