Landlords Insurance at Headlinehouse.com

The UK insurer of first choice that offers a specialised landlords insurance policy is Endsleigh. You can link to them via our link at the foot of this page. You will get either building or content insurance (or both) from them and as they are brokers with an excellent panel of insurance companies, you will be getting the best price and fit for your needs out of a range of quotes.

Because their
landlords insurance cover is designed with the needs of a landlord in mind, we do see it as a good choice as opposed to a 'general' home insurance policy.

One option, however, is to split the building and content components, still using Endsleigh
for the latter but comparing landlords insurance (buildings) cover from other providers either via our direct lsitings (recommended on the basis of more effective quality control for a commercial product) or via a price comparison system.

In most cases, geting
landlords insurance is not about securing the lowest-priced quote. It's about finding the optimal balance between cost and level of cover. In particular, the landlord has a health and safety responsibility towards his tenants that ought to be taken account of in the choice of landlords insurance cover.

To return to our primary recommendation for
landlords insurance - and you can find out more via their link below - Endsleigh has a long established pedigree over several decades of providing landlords insurance policies and they have developed considerable expertise over this period that has allowed them to refine their policies to increasingly more effectively meet their client's needs. The consumer obviously benefits form this expertise and specialisation.

Despite all of the above points, many favour the use of a price comparison system for
landlords insurance. If you choose to go down this route, do expend some energy in carefully considering the cover before purchase. 'No frills' cover aimed at the general home insurance market tends not to meet the needs of landlords insurance very effectively.

A good approach, in fact, is to work backwards (or forwards) from a read through of our recommended
landlords insurance cover and to then decide whether this is right for you or which aspects you would like to include from other providers.

For
landlords insurance in particular, it's a mistake to simply select the cheapest quote around, espeically if you do this largely blind to the associated cover. For a commerical operation, even more so than for private home insurance cover, you need to make a carefully considered choice based on prudence rather than wishful thinking that a claim might never be needed.
