Best landlord insurance for flats and apartments
In blocks, buildings insurance is often arranged by the freeholder or management company. You may only need landlord contents and liability top-up.
Not financial advice. Insurance is a regulated product. Compare quotes from FCA-authorised firms only.
LetCompliance is landlord software from £7.99 a month that runs the whole let (the advert, the tenancy, the rent and the tax). It records every policy against the property with its renewal date and reminds you 90, 30 and 7 days before it renews. It is not an insurer or a broker, and does not sell insurance. Get started
