What red flags should I look for when comparing landlord insurance quotes?

A CoverWise Team Answered by

An unusually cheap quote may reflect a high excess, significant exclusions or cover limits, so compare the policy wording rather than the headline price alone. Check that the quote accurately reflects the property’s use, tenant type, number of properties, empty periods and claims history, as incorrect details could affect how a claim is assessed. Be cautious if key exclusions, fees or cancellation terms are unclear, or if someone pressures you to buy without providing full documents. Check the provider or broker on the FCA Register, and consider asking a regulated insurance professional about any wording you do not understand.
