Real Estate and Commercial Property Insurance

For Property Investors with portfolios, medium to large, where the needs of the client require a specialist approach to manage their risk.

Real Estate Commercial Property Owners related Insurance can be designed specifically for rented properties, for owners/investors and property managers, medium sized commercial and mixed portfolios (residential and commercial) to large scale private property companies with large portfolios.

Unlike the property insurance you might have for your home or own business, Real Estate Insurance for Landlords has other liabilities that must be included in risk protection policies including covers relating to health and safety for their tenants within the properties, maintenance, and management related services.

Our team of Real Estate experts provide insurance solutions for Commercial Property Investors, Build to Rent, Regulated Property Managers (FCA, RICS DPB), Pension Property Risks SIPP & SSAS, Block Management (Flats over £2M rebuild – purpose built) and more, extending to long term unoccupied premises waiting for development.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PROPERTY INSURANCE FOR THE SMALL TO MEDIUM SIZED PORTFOLIOS AND REAL ESTATE COMMERCIAL PROPERTY INSURANCE FOR LARGE PORTFOLIOS?

Property Insurance at SJL Insurance Services provides property protection coverage and/or liability coverage for individual property owners/Landlords and small to medium sized portfolios. Commonly, it provides protection against standard insurance perils, fire, theft, flood, storm, accidental damage, rent receivable, liability etc.

However, if you are a property investor or regulated property manager (and are able to transact insurance) for a large private property company, our Real Estate and Commercial Property Insurance offering is better suited to help protect you and your assets; as our team of experts write specific property covers that suit the individual needs of each business/Landlord within the current risk environment. These covers are exclusive and specifically selected based on the client’s needs, after some extensive consultations, leading to bespoke solutions.

HOW MUCH DOES REAL ESTATE PROPERTY OWNERS INSURANCE COST?

We prefer not to provide off-the-shelf premiums and insurance packages for our clients because we don’t believe you should pay for risks that don’t meet your needs; and we understand that every business is unique, so it is priced accordingly, working with specialist underwriters. Also, risks can differ dependent upon type of property, type of construction, location and type of tenants, so we make sure we understand the risks before we consider offering full terms. We do aim to exceed your expectations at every opportunity.

Therefore, we build bespoke insurance solutions for you, taking the time to understand your individual requirements and needs, whilst using all of our knowledge and experience in the Real Estate Insurance sector.
