Although we insure all of our properties, we do not insure our tenant’s furniture, belongings or decorations against theft, fire, vandalism, burst pipes and other household risks.
You may have seen articles in our Newsletters recently where some of our tenants suffered fires in their properties. These fires were accidental and could happen to anyone, faulty wiring in an electrical appliance or a scented candle left burning. Thankfully no-one was hurt but all their belongings were damaged from the fire, smoke and water. Some of the damage can be seen on the pictures attached. Without insurance it would mean them having to start again from scratch but with insurance all this would have been covered and replaced.
We strongly recommend that you take out home contents insurance. If you would like to know more, and how much this will cost, please click on the links on the right to view details of our recommended “My Home” contents insurance scheme from The National Housing Federation.
