Press info: New landlords insurance infographic reveals the high price of claims

Report this content

As part of their ongoing commitment to providing useful information in plain English, specialist niche insurance broker Cover4LetProperty.co.uk have added a new infographic to their website highlighting information and data from the world of landlords.

For example:

  • in 2011, the most common claim under a landlords insurance policy from Cover4LetProperty was for escape of water and for an average amount of £2,786;
  • subsidence claims in the same period averaged out at £13,545 per claim (making this element of cover well worth having);
  • an average landlord insures their property for £145,000 at a premium of £208 (which includes malicious damage and subsidence cover as standard – not all policies offer these).

Richard Burgess, Director at Cover4LetProperty, commented: “When we put together our infographic, it really brought home just what good value our policies are. With the average annual premium being a little over £200 and the average claim amounts running well into thousands of pounds (depending on the type of claim it is), it further endorses how cheap getting peace of mind can be.”

The infographic is free to use by other websites by downloading the link at the foot of the graphic, which can be viewed here: http://cover4letproperty.co.uk/infographic
