Insurance.

Do what you reasonably can to prevent any further loss, damage or liability. Tell the police as soon as reasonably possible about any malicious damage, theft, attempted theft, burglary or loss of insured property. Contact the Claims Call Centre on 1300 651 777 and advise the Claims Consultant of what has happened: the Claims Consultant will help you through the landlord insurance claims process.

In order to be sure that you are covered under this policy you should always contact Allianz for approval before you incur expenses you wish to claim. If you do not, Allianz will pay for expenses incurred to the amount Allianz would have authorised had you asked Allianz first.

This insurance policy has been designed for people who are renting their property out to tenants under a residential rental agreement.

Contents owned by you (or for which you are legally responsible) and provide for the use of the tenants may also be covered under the policy.

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.

The replacement value of your buildings is not the same as the market value – you do not need to include the value of the land when calculating the buildings replacement value.

If you are altering the security on your property, you should inform us as it may change the conditions of your home insurance. This may affect your premium.

You must tell Allianz as soon as reasonably possible if, during the period of insurance you remove or stop using any security devices that were specifically required by us. If you don’t provide the information as soon as reasonably possible, Allianz may reduce or refuse a claim in whole or in part under the policy to the extent Allianz are prejudiced by the delay or non-disclosure. 

When Allianz receive this information, Allianz may:

• propose changes to the terms and conditions of your policy
• charge you a higher premium
• cancel your policy if there is a change and Allianz can’t reach an agreement with you on altered terms and conditions or premium; or Allianz are no longer prepared to insure you because there has been a material change to the risk
• decide not to offer to renew your policy.

You must tell Allianz as soon as reasonably possible if, during the period of insurance you start using any part of your home building for business, trade or professional purposes (except for a home office).

If you don’t provide this information as soon as reasonably possible, Allianz may refuse or reduce  a claim under the policy to the extent Allianz are prejudiced by the delay or the non-disclosure.

When Allianz receive this information, Allianz may:

• propose changes to the terms and conditions of your policy

If you’re renting all of your home out to tenants, cover is not available under a Home and Contents Insurance policy.  Cover is not available for these types of losses under our Home and Contents Insurance. If you rent out part of your home while you live at the same address, please contact us so we can determine if you are eligible for this product.

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, Beyond Bank Buildings and Contents Insurance will only pay up to the amount of your loss or the sum insured, whichever is the lesser - so you should also be careful not to over insure.
