Tenants
Contents Insurance
Tenants very often overlook this, especially those who have
never rented before. To a tenant who has just paid the first
months rent plus a deposit and administration fees in order
to move into the property, insurance is the last thing on
their mind. Recent studies have shown that less only 1 -20
tenants have any contents cover at all.
Although
a conventional home contents policy will give a basic degree
of cover for most insured perils it is not specifically designed
for tenants and there can be some major gaps in the cover
you need. Often the minimum sum you can insure for will be
far in excess of what the tenant needs, typically a minimum
of £10,000 - £12,000.
Most specialist tenant policies will provide the tenant with
cover starting from £2,500 upwards and will usually cover
accidental damage that you may cause to the landlords fixture,
fittings, buildings and contents. Should the tenant accidentally
damage the carpet with a wine stain or hot iron or a work
surface with a hot pan mark, these events will be covered.
Usually the tenancy agreement will make the tenant legally
liable for such damage, any damage found at the time of the
check-out will be deducted from the deposit or security bond.
If the tenant has adequate insurance these events will be
covered, thereby protecting your deposit.
If a Tenant has a loss through, burglary, fire, flood or other
insured peril, which has damaged their contents and have no
insurance for their personal possessions they are then left
with the cost of replacing the items themselves.
Any items of personal property (clothes, furniture, computers
etc) a tenant takes into the property it is their responsibility
to insure. Most policies will give an option for basic cover
which can usually be extended to cover high risk personal
items which are taken outside the home, on holiday or Worldwide
i.e. Cameras, sports equipment, clothes, jewellery etc.
In certain high-risk inner city post codes there will usually
be a requirement to have minimum-security locks on doors and
accessible windows. Do also take into account the conditions
of insurance policies, regarding keeping windows and doors
secured when the Tenant is not in the property. For further

Zurich
Insurance claims that UK Tenants are gambling with their possessions
- survey results published March 2008.
According
to Zurich Insurance UK tenants are gambling nearly £8 billion
of personal possessions by not protecting themselves against
crime or bad weather.
They
have reported that almost a million private tenants representing
37 per cent of those surveyed confessed that they have no
home contents insurance even though the fact that a third
said they estimate their personal possessions to be worth
more than £10,000 in value. Some have individual items worth
over £1,500.
In
the survey, 22 per cent admitted it would take over two years
to replace all of their possessions if they were damaged or
stolen. A third thought that they would never be able to afford
all of their personal belongings.
In
the survey one in ten tenants who do not have insurance believe
that their landlord's insurance policy covers their contents
which would very rarely occur in reality.
A
quarter of those surveyed believe that their risk is simply
not high enough to make insurance worthwhile.
The
survey found that other financial commitments take priority.
These are paying bills fifty six per cent - debt repayments
thirty six per cent - pension contributions twelve per cent.
Other reasons for not taking out contents insurance were preferring
to spend money on holidays, new clothes and socialising.
Steven
Gilbert Zurich Insurance's home underwriting manager said"
Home contents insurance is often seen by tenants as non essential.
Be it funding other financial priorities, their lifestyles
or even perhaps saving to get a foot on the property ladder
themselves, they need to be aware that not having insurance
could cost them dearly in the long run - especially if faced
with the daunting prospect of replacing all their possessions".
