INTRODUCTION

What is Block of Flats Insurance?

Block of Flats Insurance is a specialist buildings insurance policy created for residential developments with multiple self-contained flats or apartments.

Unlike standard home insurance, it is specifically designed for buildings with shared ownership responsibilities and communal facilities. A single policy can provide protection for the structure of the building together with a range of risks associated with managing multi-occupancy properties.

Insurance is typically arranged by the party responsible for maintaining the building, whether that’s a freeholder, management company, managing agent, or residents’ association.

Why Specialist Block Insurance is Important

Residential blocks present a very different level of risk compared with a standard house or buy-to-let property.

Factors such as multiple occupants, shared communal areas, service charge obligations and higher liability exposure require insurance that is specifically designed for this type of property.

A specialist Block of Flats Insurance policy helps ensure your building is insured for the correct rebuild value while protecting against the risks associated with owning or managing residential developments.

Working with specialist insurers also means your cover can be tailored to reflect your property’s construction, occupancy and management arrangements.
