Commercial & Business Property Insurance

Commercial landlord insurance or commercial property insurance offers coverage and protection to commercial property owners who let a property out to third party businesses.

Commercial landlord insurance is different from residential landlord insurance because commercial units such as shops and offices are constructed differently from a domestic property. Also, the commercial property receives more visitors, has distinct risks and requires a specific kind of protection, should the unexpected happen.

What Does Commercial Landlord Insurance Cover?

We offer key coverage in:

Buildings

Building insurance offers protection in case your property is damaged or destroyed. The amount offered would not depend on the market value of the property but rather, the cost of rebuilding your commercial property in case it is affected by a natural disaster or an insured event.

Landlord Legal Protection

Landlord legal protection covers the possible costs associated with any legal proceedings relating to your rental property, including legal action, and court proceedings.

You may want to take legal action if a tenant damages your property, you need to evict them or recover unpaid rent from them.

Rental Income

If your property can no longer be occupied due to an insured event, our partner insurers will cover the cost of your missed rental income to support your business.

Landlord Contents

A cover that can pay for the repair or replacement of your own contents in a rental premise if they are damaged or destroyed. Covered possessions include furniture, appliances and contents in communal areas.

Property Owner’s Liability

Property owner’s liability allows you to meet any costs and damages incurred by a claim from member of the public if they suffer an injury following an accident on or linked to your property.

Emergency Cover

Emergency Cover insurance is a cover against incidents such as boiler breakdown, burst pipes and roof damage.
