Rent Protection and Legal Expenses Insurance
Landlords – now there’s no need to worry about unpaid rent
Get cover to protect your rental payments with Rent Protection and Legal Expenses Insurance – allowing you to predict your future finances with confidence. We have different options available to landlords depending on which letting service you are using with Your Move.
Reasons for considering this protection
- Despite the thorough vetting they always undertake, sometimes unexpected circumstances arise.
- Unemployment, inability to work due to sickness or marital breakdown can all lead to tenants not paying their rent.
- The consequences for you, as a landlord, can be serious.
- You could find that you're unable to keep up with repayments on a mortgage or secured loan for the property. You also risk incurring legal costs if you need to gain possession of your property.
