House insurance provides coverage to a property owner from financial
losses connected with a property such as a house, townhouse, apartment,
or bungalow.
House insurance should be seen as a necessity to safeguard your
asset. House insurance is required by you as the property owner
regardless of whether you reside in the property or have the property
tenanted.
A typical house insurance policy will cover the building itself
and typically includes fittings and fixtures. In some cases, policies
will also cover any contents left within the property such as a
fridge, washing machine, dryer and other furniture if the property
is tenanted.
Most house insurance policies will cover standard perils such as
fire, theft, accidental or malicious damage, natural disasters such
as storm and in some cases flood, lightning and earthquake. Arson
and explosion can sometimes also be covered. Each insurance policy
is different and may or may not include all of these items.
It is important to take out enough insurance cover to ensure that
you are able to rebuild your dwelling in the event that the entire
building is destroyed.

It is also possible to take out a house insurance policy which
offers protection against public liability in the event that someone
is injured within the property itself. This is not usually a standard
offering for house insurance as liability insurance is typically
included with contents insurance.
It is important to be covered for public liability and if you do
not have contents insurance it is a very good idea to take out this
type of cover with your house insurance. This will ensure that an
accident leading to an injury of a guest, tenant or even an intruder
will not leave you liable for anywhere up to millions of dollars.
Also consider the excess payable if you need to make a claim. This
can vary considerably and some insurers will allow an extra premium
to be paid in order to remove or reduce the excess.
