Insurances

Landlords Insurance Including Rent Guarantee

As a landlord, you are usually obliged by the mortgage lender to have buildings insurance but at Bywater Herring we can also cover your rent to make sure you get paid if your tenant misses a payment as well as protect your costs if the property is empty. Our advisers have access to specialist insurance to make sure you minimise your risk.

Tenants Insurance

If you are renting and you need to cover your belongings, Bywater Herring advisers can help you to protect what’s yours at a sensible price. We can also help make sure your rent is covered if you are sick or involved in an accident.

Buildings Insurance

Buildings Insurance – this is compulsory with most mortgages but getting the right cover at the right price is the most important if you don’t want to waste money. Bywater Herring independent advisers can search the market for you and get good quality products at the best prices so that you are getting the best value for money.

Contents Insurance

There are so many different options when protecting your contents and if you don’t choose the right ones or there are hidden clauses in your policy, you can end up being badly disappointed when it comes to a claim. At Bywater Herring, we can make sure you don’t have extra worries when it comes to a claim by having the right insurance in place. Remember that cheap policies are cheap because the companies don’t often pay out the claims so if you want a policy you can claim on, let us find the right one for you from the best insurers in the UK.
