What is Display Home Insurance?
Display Home Insurance is needed when you buy a house from a builder that has a lease back option to allow the builder to lease the property back from the purchaser and use the property as a Display Home. This lease period can often be anywhere between 1 and 3 years.
A standard Household Building and Contents policy does not provide cover for these homes as they are not being occupied and used as a residential family home. In addition, a standard residential landlords policy does not apply as a standard residential lease is not in place.
We can arrange a specific Display Home Insurance Policy for this kind of arrangement that provides cover for:
- The Building - including Landlords Fixtures & Fittings.
- Loss of Rent Cover. This means that if there is a claim under the policy (e.g. Fire Damage, Storm Damage etc.) and the property cannot be used as a display home while repairs are being carried out, the builder (your tenant) will not have to pay you rent. This policy provides the rental income that you are missing out on during this time.
- The policy also provides Public Liability cover for you as the property owner.
- Glass, both internal and external, is covered against damage.
- There is also the option to add Flood cover to the policy.
