Vacancy review

Establish why it is empty and for how long

Reason for vacancy

Between tenants, on the market, a deceased estate, or awaiting renovation each carry different appetite.

Expected duration

How long the property will stand empty is usually the first underwriting question.

Security and inspection

Locks, alarms, and how often the property is checked commonly affect the terms.

Covers commonly discussed

What changes when a property empties

Empty properties face different risks: escape of water going unnoticed, malicious damage, and squatting, which is why wordings change rather than simply continuing.

Restricted perils

Vacant property cover is often narrower than a standard policy, with some perils limited or excluded.

Water damage

Undetected leaks are a leading vacant-property loss, and cover for them is frequently conditional.

Renovation overlap

Once building work starts, contract works cover generally becomes part of the conversation.

Common questions

Questions worth asking before you decide.

Use the first conversation to clarify documents, timing, fees where relevant, and the policy terms that need checking before advice, quote, renewal, or claims-support steps.

How long can a property be empty before cover changes?

Many home and landlord policies apply a vacancy condition somewhere around 60 to 90 days, after which cover may be restricted. The exact period is set in your policy wording.

Do I need to tell my insurer the property is empty?

Yes. Vacancy is generally a material fact, and not disclosing it can affect a claim. Telling them is the safer course even if cover continues.

What about a property I am renovating?

Once construction work begins, contract works cover usually enters the picture alongside or instead of a standard property policy.
