Looking for holiday home insurance

When negotiating to buy what could well be a dream holiday home it can be easy to overlook the fact it will need an insurance policy just as your regular home does. Likewise, a standard home insurance deal often does not apply – a holiday home is often left empty for long periods, or may be rented out to a number of people, for example. These are just examples of why it can be sensible to take out a specialist holiday home insurance policy.

Of course getting the policy in plain English written in a manner in which you can understand is vital – we all have to at least glance over the conditions of a policy drawn up in the UK, and it is important to be able to do the same with a policy arranged for a home abroad.

When setting up a policy, the level of cover is also important and it can pay to carefully consider the contents side of the insurance – how much will be kept in the house when you are not there and what parts of the property may you need to arrange extra cover for – such as outhouses and swimming pools for example.

Holiday home insurance will also need to be easy to claim on and as such is often much easier if the company offers English or English-speaking telephone staff. They can then effectively communicate with loss adjusters who may be based overseas.

When arranging a policy it may also pay to check the company in question does not impose long and detailed conditions or clauses, which can often include the chance of the cover being invalid if you fail to turn off the water or do not drain a central heating system when the home is empty.

Holiday home insurance may sometimes even include things like protection for loss of income should you lose out on rent because of a major problem – effectively protecting the business side of your investment. The right deal can therefore mean you do not end up paying over the odds and hit with a cost which takes the shine off your purchase – cover can be simple to arrange, cost effective and supportive when you need it to be.
