Get A QuoteUnoccupied property insurance from Babal Karama Project Management Services is suitable for properties which will be vacant for 30 days or more. Our cover is flexible. You can choose any period of cover such as 3, 6, 9 and 12 month insurance policies. This means you are only paying for what you need to avoid any unnecessary costs.
Empty Homes
If you know your main home will be unoccupied for more than 60 days, just let us know so we can make sure your cover isn’t affected. In the event that your home becomes permanently unoccupied, you will need specialist cover. That’s where our expert team can help to advise you.
High Risks
When insuring an empty house, keep in mind it might be more expensive than standard building insurance. This is because vacant properties can be at higher risk of squatters, vandalism or fire.
Babal Karama Project Management Services offer good value insurance. Other insurers may be cheaper, but lower levels of cover can leave you open to risk. Often insurers will not provide full cover while a property undergoes renovation or refurbishment. However, in most cases we can offer extensive cover.
