We love insuring houses. Choose the right insurance policy, we’ll quote it and insure it instantly, all online. We use our technology to save you time and money. Policy confirmation to your inbox, a personalised insurance dashboard and no-fuss claims.
Our Home and Income page will help you decide which type of insurance cover best suits your unique needs. Maybe you own your home and sometimes rent out spaces like a self-contained granny flat or even just a bedroom to flatmates?
Whatever your situation, we’ve got you covered.
