Can anyone recommend an insurance company who will insure an investment property at a reasonable price.

Im told that no one will quote except the Company who I have my primary residence with, and they are charging an outlandissh fee. Any ideas?????????
 
House Insurance Investment Property

Try AA. I had a recent experience where my insurance on an investment property went up 50% and searched around a bit, got a very reasonable quote from the AA.

Hi Slim Jim

I have just been through this loop myself.

I found a tip from Liam D in this forum of a company called J C Daly their phone number is (068) 31164 - very helpfull & you do not need to have your private home insurance with them.

Good Luck

..insurance..investment property

i changed my house from private house to rental.. i contacted my insurer(Eagle Star)...to my surprise de extra loading was about 40 euros... which i was very happy with... i might add though that was for a couple and one child,maybe it wold be different for a houseful of students!!!

insurance quotes

What is a reasonable quote ?

I have a house worth €165,000 and AA insured it for €260.

I note that Celona mentions hers was for a couple with child , does the amount and type ( eg social welfare )of tenant make a difference

Rental property Insurance

I insure my investment property through BOI. It is rented to a couple with one child for less than 200 euros. Bank told me that if it had been students I would have paid far more.

insurance

i've found www.hiberniandirect.ie quite good; cheaper in fact than calling them directly. their site allows you to see exactly how much reduction you'd get for various things such as having an alarm, smoke alarm, being over 55, community alert, etc.
 
Incorrect

Johnfitz's last statement has one flaw in it, that is, the hiberniandirect website quotes premiums on the assumption (an assumption you must accept) that

"The property, including any domestic outbuildings, is your main home, occupied solely by you and/or your family and is not used in any way for business purposes"

I presume this rules out buy to let property!
 
Public Liability Insurance

Do the above quotes cover public lialility insurance.
I have a friend who is now getting sued because the tennant slipped on the step coming out of the apt. There was some moss on it so they are sueing.
Not wanting this to happen to me i am going to have to get Public liability ins. Can you tell me how much extra this costs? Thank a mill
 
Insurance for Investment Property

As an update to this thread I have recently been checking out different insurers as follows:

AA, Cornmarket, Hibernian, One Direct all require your own home policy with them. Hibernian (have the home with them) will only do property rented to families. THey also give discounts, 10%+, on the home policy if you have other policies with them (car, life, etc).

Looks like I have to stick with my current insurer, Quinn-Direct.

Can anyone suggest others?
