Point 1

Broadly based tenant insurance may look as if it will take care of you if the rent stops coming in. But a closer examination of the terms and conditions shows that this only happens in specific circumstances – mainly if your tenants are forced to move out after the property becomes inhabitable. There’s more information about this on www.tenantinsurance.co.uk. To protect your rent in many other circumstances you are likely to need what is known as ‘rent guarantee’ or ‘rent protection’ insurance.
