Second Home Insurance

Insurance that covers damage to the building, contents, and liability for a second home.

Second home insurance covers damage to the building itself, contents and furnishings, and liability towards third parties. The right insurance is especially important for shared properties, where multiple owners may be responsible.

What should the insurance cover?

  • Building: Fire, water damage, storm, break-in
  • Contents: Furniture, electronics, appliances, and personal belongings
  • Liability: Damage caused to guests or neighbours
  • Rental: Additional coverage if you rent out via Airbnb

Tips for co-owners

In a co-ownership arrangement, the insurance premium should be split as a shared expense. Make sure all owners are familiar with the policy terms and that proof of insurance is accessible to everyone.
