Block of Flats Insurance
Apartment block insurance refers to the coverage of multiple residencies within one building. Whether a house that has been converted into self-contained flats, to purpose built blocks, insurance brokers consider a property with two or more flats to be a block.
Insuring a single flat within a block is one thing, but if you are the owner of a block of flats you will face increased risk in a lot of areas. This means securing a dedicated block insurance policy to cover all possible eventualities.
For example, if there is damage to a communal area, it may go unreported and, if it is, the culprit may not be able to be identified. In this case, you would want the damage repaired quickly and conveniently, which often means making a claim.
