6. Home Contents Insurance
You are responsible for insuring your own belongings, such as furniture, electrical items, clothing, and personal possessions. This should include third-party liability to cover any personal loss or damage to others, for example though water leaking from your washing machine into your neighbour’s home. We will not accept liability in such cases.
Contents insurance is optional but strongly recommended, as it can help you replace your belongings if something goes wrong. Many policies are affordable, and some are designed specifically for tenants. Independent advice services or comparison websites can help you find a policy that suits your needs and budget. For more information about insurance cover, please seek advice from an independent specialist.
