If you are set to leave your property unattended for an extended period, you should consider obtaining the right level of insurance to cover the property against damage, burglary and public liability.

If you are leaving your property unattended for 30 consecutive days or more, most standard home insurance policies won't cover you fully, leaving you with a potentially hefty financial burden.

That's why you must take out the appropriate unoccupied home insurance before your property becomes vacant, to ensure that everything is taken care of.

When do I need unoccupied house insurance?

 

Unoccupied house insurance is suitable when a property isn't your principal dwelling and is set to be unoccupied for extended periods, generally over 60 consecutive days.

Standard home insurance generally won't cover properties that are left unoccupied for over 30 consecutive days or longer. The main reason for this is that with the house being empty, the risk of damage to the property, break in, or theft increases substantially.

There are many reasons that you may be leaving your property unoccupied for an extended period of time, and our cover is often used for circumstances such as

  • Inherited homes
  • Estate arrangements e.g. a property going through probate
  • Properties that are for sale or going through extensive renovations

We have specialists on hand to help you find unoccupied home insurance if your requirements are a little more complex. i4me has access to insurers that offer more flexible arrangements for those who will be leaving their home unoccupied for longer than normal periods.
