Questions about holiday home insurance you didn't think to ask!
Truth is, you might have alot more questions and our experts can answer them all.
What does holiday home insurance cover in Ireland?
Holiday home insurance typically covers property damage, contents protection, accidental damage, theft, and potential liability. It also provides coverage for periods when the property is unoccupied, which is unique to holiday home policies.
How is holiday home insurance different from standard home insurance?
Holiday home insurance is specifically designed for properties that are not permanently occupied. It includes additional protections for extended periods of vacancy, potential weather-related damages, and specific risks associated with intermittent use of the property.
Do I need special insurance if I rent out my holiday home?
Yes, if you rent out your holiday home, you'll need a specialized policy that covers both property ownership and potential risks associated with short-term letting. This typically includes additional liability protection and coverage for potential tenant-related damages.
How can I reduce the cost of my holiday home insurance in Ireland?
You can potentially reduce premiums by installing security systems, using approved locks, having regular property inspections, maintaining the property well, and choosing a higher excess. Some insurers offer discounts for properties with added safety features.
What additional risks should I be aware of with a holiday home?
Holiday homes face unique risks such as extended periods of vacancy, potential weather damage (especially in coastal or rural areas), higher risk of break-ins, and potential damage from unexpected events during unoccupied periods. Comprehensive insurance helps mitigate these specific risks.
