To request landlord insurance quotes, you’ll usually need the property address, type and construction details, number of bedrooms, estimated rebuild value and details of any outbuildings. Insurers may also ask about the tenancy, expected rent, your claims history, security measures and whether the property is unoccupied, furnished or mortgaged. Proof of ownership, gas and electrical safety certificates and tenancy agreements are not always needed for an initial quote, but could be requested before cover starts or if you make a claim. Check the requirements with each FCA-authorised provider, as they can vary.
