Holiday home insurance in Europe

Because a holiday home is typically hundreds or thousands of miles away from someone’s first residence, the question of how to insure it is always initially a tricky one. Because a property may be left unoccupied or may even be in an isolated location, it is an obvious risk which means the right kind of cover may be essential. Specialist holiday home insurance in Spain, France, or any number of foreign countries may therefore be an important part of someone’s overseas investment.

People often find they are offered cover by foreign companies, or are perhaps pushed in the direction of certain firms by foreign agents. But it is often simple to arrange protection for your overseas home through a British-based provider who may supply protection for property based in the UK as a second or holiday home or abroad.

Whether the second or holiday home is in the UK or elsewhere, there is likely to be a higher risk of a break in, for example, because it may be left empty for long periods each year. If it is unoccupied there are not just implications regarding security, but also when it comes to flooding or fire – a serious problem is likely to go unnoticed for longer at a home which has no regular occupant during off- season.

Some UK based firms may quickly be able to arrange holiday home insurance in Spain, France, Italy, Germany, and a whole other long list of locations. One of the benefits of sorting out a policy through a British-based Company is that you will get the documents supplied to you in English. This is not necessarily a guarantee when going through a foreign firm, and may make things difficult if you’re not fluent in the language.

Overseas home insurance may also be arranged to include protection for if you intend to let the property to holiday makers. For example, packages may come with public liability insurance, and accidental damage cover as standard. They may also include liability cover which is appropriate if you intend to have private staff on the premises, i.e. to carry out cleaning duties.

When arranging holiday home insurance in a foreign country it may be tempting to take deals which are put in front of you by overseas agents. But going with a company based in the UK may save somebody an awful lot of hassle in the long run and may even prove cheaper, meaning their dream investment is protected at a reasonable price.
