Get landlord insurance
Make sure that you have comprehensive landlord insurance in place
There is much you can do to reduce the risk of storm damage to your property, but winter can be a challenging season for even the best prepared of landlords.
Making sure that you have comprehensive landlord insurance in place provides peace of mind that you are protected if your rental property is damaged by a storm this winter.
In the worst case scenario - that a storm damages your property to the extent that your tenants have to move out - a comprehensive policy like Total Landlord Insurance’s Premier policy will not only cover the cost of repair work but also loss of rent or alternative accommodation.
Our experience also shows that investment in maintenance can be seasonal to match claims: when it comes to protecting your property against storms, make sure you do it before the spike in storm claims in the winter months, particularly February.
Our guide, Property maintenance tips for all seasons, is a comprehensive checklist designed to help landlords carry out key maintenance checks all year round.
