What landlord insurance policies does Budget Direct offer?
Budget Direct has two separate landlord insurance policies – one for building insurance and one for contents insurance. Budget Direct’s landlord building insurance covers you for the cost of repairing or replacing your rental property, while landlord contents insurance covers your carpets, curtains, furniture and whitegoods against loss or damage.
As of April 2, 2020, new Budget Direct landlord insurance policies will not provide cover for tenant default or damage caused by tenants/their visitors. Budget Direct says the following:
“Please note, at present, Optional Tenant Default cover (cover for when your tenant stops paying rent or leaves without giving notice) and Theft and Malicious damage by tenants cover (cover for loss, damage or destruction by your tenant or the visitors) is not available for purchase on new landlord Home and/or Contents Insurance Policies.”
