Is the cover on a new-for-old basis?
Yes - your policy will replace all items as new, aside from clothing, where a certain amount of wear and tear is expected
Can I have just contents insurance?
You can choose liability cover as a separate policy - however, you’ll be covered for tenants liability as standard within your contents insurance policy.
Does each tenant take out a policy or does it cover the household?
Your policy will cover you and anyone living with you under your tenancy agreement - but other tenants will have to take out their own policy if they don’t meet this criteria.
Do I have to specify all of my individual items?
No, but you may be asked to give receipts and photos of any items that you claim on, so you should make sure you keep tabs on the high value items.
