What is Landlord Insurance?
It expands on building and fittings cover to also protect your investment income and property. Unlike home and contents, our landlord’s policies can provide cover for malicious damage and theft by tenants.
The building section covers your structure and permanent fixtures (pools, walls, roofing, etc) from intentional damage from tenants, as well as accidental damage and weather events.
Contents cover offers protection for your fittings, which can include items like your carpets, blinds, curtains and any whitegoods or appliances.
What can be covered
- Tenant theft or malicious damage
- Accidental damage
- Motor burnout of appliances
- Fire, flood & storm
- Loss of rent (if property is damaged & untenable)
- Tenant default
- Public liability (damage/injury to tenants or belongings)
What may not be
- Construction defects
- Renovations or additions >$75,000 not declared
- Failure to maintain or repair once notified
- Most pet-related damage
- Damage/loss from birds, insects, vermin

Cover your building and fittings, and protect your investment income and property
Landlord Insurance claim example
Janet and Ross bought an investment property in Sydney’s inner west. They relied on the rental income from the property to help cover their mortgage repayments. They rent the property to tenants who cause extensive damage to some of the walls, floor coverings and doors – and then left owing 12 weeks’ rent.
Because the property needed repairs, Janet and Ross were unable to rent it out immediately. Fortunately, the couple had taken out landlord’s insurance with loss of rent cover AND chose the rent default cover option.
They successfully claimed on their insurance to cover their repair costs, the 12 weeks of rent default from the tenants vacating without paying, and their loss of rent while the building was repaired. This allowed them to make their mortgage repayments and repair the property quickly so they could get new tenants in.

Clayton Rowlings did a wonderful job for me. He's very knowledgeable on everything about insurance. He's also an excellent communicator, being able to listen and understand my needs and then advise me accordingly. … More He got me a deal about 30% cheaper than the one I got from my existing stockbroker. This occasion of getting an insurance quote was the best experience I have ever had so far in my lifetime and I'm 67 years old!

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.
