A residential investment property needs to be appropriately insured.
Landlord insurance can give you the confidence that your property will be covered should something go wrong. Beyond Bank Landlord Insurance covers the property and/or the contents you provide for your tenant’s use from loss or damage by insured events.
To help you decide the cover you need.
To help you decide the cover you need, here’s a brief outline of the difference between Buildings and Contents cover.
The better you understand your policy, the easier it will be if you ever have to claim.
Here is a limited summary of the benefits of a landlord insurance policy. For full details of the standard terms, conditions, limits and exclusions that apply please read the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS), any applicable supplementary PDS before making a decision to purchase the insurance. The Landlord Buildings and Landlord Contents Key Fact Sheets (KFS) also sets out some information about the cover.
- Cover for the unexpected
Beyond Bank Landlord Insurance offers cover for your investment property for out of the ordinary but devastating events such as fire4, storm4 and burglary. - Legal liability
Beyond Bank Landlord Insurance will cover your legal liability up to $20 million for payment of compensation relating to death, bodily injury or illness, and/or physical loss of or damage to property caused by an accident (or series of accidents). If you have contents cover only, it does not cover any legal liability you may incur as owner of the buildings unless the buildings are defined as a lot. - Making your buildings environmentally friendly
If you have buildings cover and your buildings are totally destroyed and need to be rebuilt, in addition to your buildings sum insured, Beyond Bank Landlord Insurance will pay up to $5,000 (after deduction of any government or council rebates) to help you make the new buildings more environmentally friendly. - Landlords contents

Landlord Insurance Calculators
It’s up to you to decide the sums insured, and the type and level of cover that you want to take out. People generally want enough insurance to cover the property’s estimated replacement value. If you don’t have enough cover, you could end up having to cover some of the costs yourself.
Remember, Allianz will only pay up to the amount of your loss or the sum insured, whichever is the lesser (subject to the policy terms and conditions) - so you should also be careful not to over insure. That's why we've provided these calculators. They work as guides to help you estimate the replacement value of your landlord building and contents.

This policy is not suitable for covering the building or contents of the home you live in. In this regard, Allianz offer a Home and Contents product that has been specifically designed for homeowners or renters.
