What is Commercial Landlords Insurance?
Commercial Landlords Insurance covers owners of commercial properties who lease to tenants across many various industries. It includes building cover, loss of rent if the premises are damaged, machinery breakdown and your public liability as a landlord.
Even if your property is part of a strata complex, it is very important you have your own insurance as the property owner for the many risks which are not covered by the body corporate’s building policy.
Having commercial landlords insurance in place will also help mitigate losses from damage or accidents caused by your tenants or their customers.
What can be covered
- Accidental, malicious damage and perils (eg. fire)
- Loss of rent
- Injury to third parties
- Damaged glass or signage
- Landlord legal liability
- Machinery breakdown
- Tax audit
What may not be
- Floor, unless requested
- Tenant default
- Deterioration (wear & tear)
- Neglect, lack of maintenance
- Properties vacant for continuous periods (varies by insurer)
Get Started with Commercial Landlords Insurance
Commercial landlords insurance fit for purpose to protect your assets.
Commercial Landlords Insurance claim example
James owns commercial properties, and mentions to his broker that he’s just bought a new tenanted industrial unit — but “not to worry it’s covered by the body corporate insurance.”
His broker insists that he should take out at least some cover for fittings, loss of rent and public liability. James accepts.
Shortly after, he’s served with a notice for injury to one of his tenant’s customers who slipped on a spill in the common area.
The injured customer sued, serving on James, his tenant and the body corporate alleging they were all responsible for the injury.
James’ insurer indemnifies him and settles on the claim with the other 2 insurers, each paying out $30,000 to the claimant. By having this policy, James avoided paying out his own legal costs to defend himself, and his only expense was a $500 excess.

I couldn't be happier with the professionalism and high service standards I've experienced since first contacting CIB back in March 2025 for an insurance quote.I have been assisted by Tracey Eaton who is always … More at the end of the phone when I call or quick to respond on the off chance she's not available.Tracey is very friendly, patient, informative and knowledgable. She is authentic and from my initial contact (and further ones since) Tracey goes to the lengths necessary to answer all my questions by explaining and adding extra information, or providing examples in straightforward terms, and conducts any follow up very promptly and effectively.My insurance need wasn't for a common residential property, and staff at numerous other insurance companies I'd approached didn't know if they could arrange cover or couldn't.By the time I'd got CIBs contact info I was frustrated, skeptical and I didn't have confidence I was going to find an insurance product I was after.Straight away Tracey said she was pretty sure she could find an insurer who would be able to offer me insurance, as she was aware coverage in the past had been' obtained for similar properties and circimstances. Within a short time she was back in contact confirming it was possible.Subsequent quotes were reasonable and provided options, and the policy statement info was easy to understand.After many dead-ends with a lot of enquiries I'd made of other insurers, previously, and a lot of wasted time and dealing with other people nowhere near as interested to help or knowledgeable about available imsurers ... my contact and experience with Tracey and CIB was so easy, hassle free and re-assuring. I ended up with everything I needed and for a competitive premium.A couple of other employees of CIB who I've also spoken to, including Mark McGuire, have been just as helpful, interested and committed to providing great communication and assistance to me.It's evident the employment standards, training and management support or practices result in recruiting good people, who enjoy their job and are good at it.I couldn't be more satisfied and I believe I'm in good hands. I continue to receive fast, friendly, genuine assistance on the couple of occassions I've had further contact since taking out my policy.Thanks Tracey and to your colleagues, you display a passion and commitment to present the best side of the insurance industry, in the best interest and for benefit to your client.I hope many other people get to have the same positive experience as I have.
