When comparing landlord insurance in Bristol, check that the policy covers the property type, including flats, HMOs or multiple rental units, and reflects its rebuild cost accurately. Buildings insurance is usually essential, while landlords may also consider contents, loss of rent, legal expenses and property owners’ liability cover. Ask whether escape-of-water, flooding or periods when the property is unoccupied are covered, as exclusions and conditions vary between providers. Compare policy wording and excesses as well as price, and check any specialist requirements with an FCA-authorised insurer or broker.
