Insurance Calculators

Home Calculator

The home insurance calculator will estimate the cost of rebuilding your home.
This is the amount you need to insure your home for (known as your ‘sum insured’).
QBE's estimate reflects where you live, the size of your home, and the materials / labour needed to rebuild.
It will also factor in costs that are often overlooked, such as architect and surveyors’ fees and debris removal.
This estimate isn’t the same as your home’s real estate value.

Contents Calculator

The contents insurance calculator estimates the cost of replacing your belongings.
This is the amount you need to insure your contents for (known as your ‘sum insured’).
QBE's estimate will reflect the value of your belongings, including higher risk items such as jewellery, electronics and gadgets.
Contents insurance includes new-for-old replacement on most items.

A few things to remember

Costs vary over time, so review your sum insured every year.
Re-evaluate your sum insured when you renovate and make new purchases.
Accurate valuations can be provided by an independent professional such as a quantity surveyor, valuer or other suitably qualified professional.
The cost of rebuilding your home is not the same as its real estate value.
