Landlord Insurance at Headlinehouse.com

Both building and content landlord insurance is provided by Endsleigh Insurance, our top recommendation for this category of home insurance cover. You can access our Endsleigh home insurance page that provides links and more information about landlord insurance via their link at the bottom of this page. They are a long-established broker with a reputation for value for money.

If you split the content and building cover, such that you get the former from Endsleigh but the latter through an altenative route, then this can help to minimise costs, particularly if you deploy a price comparison system to find the (building) landlord insurance cover.

It is advisable to use a specialist provider for landlord insurance, however, given the differences between this and 'general' home insurance. As Endsleigh is a broker, they do check their panel of insurers for you which helps to keep down the cost, given that you are getting a 'best of' quote.

We would advise against treating landlord insurance similarly to general private home insurance. The landlord does not live in the property and this has implications for the categorisation of cover. In particular, going for the lowest priced cover as found via a price comparison site will be a poor match for a landlord's needs.

In general, we tend to advise our users to consider going direct for their cover and this is certainly worthwhile for landlord insurance cover.

Those seeking landlord insurance through Endsleigh may find it helpful to advise their tenants of Endsleigh's dedicated tenant's insurance policy too as, to some extent, the landlord's and tenant's policies compliment each other. Obviously it would be matter for the tenant as to whether they agreed to taking out Endsleigh Insurance themselves as they would need to be the policy holder.

Landlord insurance is big business - there's an awful lot of rental properties out there. This allows for healthy competition between proivders which inevitably beneifts the consumer in keeping prices as low as possible. This effect means that while going direct prevents undertaking a landlord insurance quote comparison, it is reasonable to assume that market forces will see to it that you don't pay too much.

It remains important, of course, to carefully check over the detail of the landlord insurance policy you're selecting. It's generally easy to do this when you go direct for your cover as insurance companies invariably provide full policy details online.
