Home contents insurance

All Apex tenants are responsible for having their own home contents insurance cover for personal property, furnishings and the decoration of their home.

Home contents insurance covers you against loss, theft or damage to your personal and home possessions.

For many, with competing pressures on the household budget, home contents insurance may not seem a priority. If you do not have insurance for your personal property, you run the risk of having to find all the money necessary to repair or replace items that have been damaged.

Over the past few years there have been many examples in the media of extensive damage being caused by flooding, fire and severe cold spells resulting in burst pipes. Many of those affected had no insurance.

Where can I get home contents insurance?

There are many contents insurance providers available – look them up on-line, in your yellow pages or contact your local insurance broker.

Your housing officer can also provide you with information and advice on home contents insurance.
