Before taking out insurance

Make sure that you:

  • Thoroughly read and understand all clauses in the contract. Your general insurance agent or broker must explain them to you.

  • Inform your insurer that you are renting your accommodation on a temporary basis. This could impact insurance costs, as well as the coverage offered.

  • Check if the contract covers actions (and inaction) by the people staying in your lodging.
