How do you best protect a property you own and rent to tenants? Choosing the occupants carefully helps, but even with model tenants, there’s no guarantee they’ll take care of things to the standard you’d like. As a landlord, you need to reduce your vulnerability to vandalism, malicious damage, and theft. Not to mention lost rental income, should your property become unliveable because of major damage.
You also need protection from those unlikely, but still possible, risks like fire, lightning and storm damage, falling trees and unforeseen catastrophes. With Orange Credit Union’s Landlord Cover, you have peace of mind that you’ll be covered if your property is damaged or destroyed by specific events as set out in the policy wording. Competitive, convenient cover backed by QBE Landlord Cover is one of a comprehensive range of insurance solutions Orange Credit Union offers through our association with QBE Insurance. Founded in 1886, QBE is one of Australia’s leading insurers. It’s because of QBE’s experience, security and strength – as well as its prompt, efficient and friendly claims service that we’ve made it our general insurance provider.
