PART 6 - INSURANCE
1. LANDLORD PROTECTION INSURANCE:
I understand that as a property investor there are risks involved in having tenants rent my property, and that Residential Rentals Limited through good property mangement will help manage this risk, but ultimately are not responsible
for the actions of tenants. I understand to completely manage this risk I should have landlord protection insurance. PLEASE NOTE this insurance is seperate from your House/Building Insurance. Please refer to Landlord Insurance on this website for more
information.
Please tick the appropriate box.
Please organise Landlord Insurance for my property. I am aware that I am required to have House/Building Insurance seperate to this.
I have chosen not to take out landlord insurance against Residential Rentals Advice. I understand that while all the necessary checks are done, if I don't take landlord insurance I will not be covered for the lost rent or
damage to my property caused by any tenant that can not be recovered through bond.
I already have a landlord insurance policy for this property. Please forward a copy to Residential Rentals. Please complete the details below.
