What if I live in one of my units?
The Multi-Unit Rental policy is designed for rental properties. If you own a block of units and personally reside in one unit, this will need to be insured individually as an owner occupied home. This way you can include cover for your contents and personal effects, and get premium savings on your own home. The remainder of the units in the block can be insured either together or individually.
What if it is a Body Corporate?
Sorry we are unable to insure properties which are Body Corporates.
How do I note the ownership of each unit?
If each unit has a different owner the unit will need to be insured individually. To qualify for the multi-unit policy the units must share both the ownership and the roof.
Initio allows you to buy insurance online and enjoy some of the best policy coverage and claims management available to Landlords of multi units.
