5 Reasons why real estate investors should consider reviewing their insurance policies

As a real estate investor, you know that your properties represent a significant investment. Yet we often see that buildings insurance policies are not reviewed regularly, which can lead to unnecessary risks and increased costs.

Here are five key reasons to take a close look at your current home insurance policy:

  1. Rising premiums: Premises insurance premiums often rise annually with no apparent explanation. A review can help negotiate better terms and potentially save costs.
  2. Changing property portfolio: When your property portfolio grows or changes, existing coverage may no longer fit your needs. This can lead to underinsurance or unnecessary additional costs.
  3. New providers in the market: The insurance market is dynamic. New providers may offer more attractive terms or lower premiums. It pays to investigate whether switching can be advantageous.
  4. Bad terms or exclusions: Many policies contain hidden exclusions or conditions that can put you in a predicament. A review can reveal whether your current policy really provides the coverage you need.
  5. Better customer support: If you find that your intermediary is poorly accessible or constantly changing contacts, it may be time to choose an insurer that is customer-focused and better supports you in managing your risks.
