Insuring Properties Leased to Charities, Councils & Housing Associations

Specialist Landlord Insurance for Properties Leased to Charities, Councils & Housing Associations

If you’re a landlord leasing your property to a charity, local council, or housing association, standard landlord insurance may not provide the protection you need. These types of agreements differ from typical Assured Shorthold Tenancies (ASTs) — as the property is managed by a third party and occupied under separate arrangements, the risks are different. That’s why having specialist landlord insurance is essential to ensure your investment is fully protected and your policy remains valid.

 

At WTJ our exclusive landlord insurance is designed specifically for properties leased to third parties, offering all the essential covers you’d expect — including buildings insurance, property owners’ liability, loss of rent, alternative accommodation, and landlord’s contents insurance. This comprehensive policy ensures peace of mind that your property is properly insured, even under complex leasing or management arrangements.

 

We have extensive experience arranging non-standard landlord policies and work closely with specialist insurers to provide tailored solutions for landlords who lease to charities, councils, or housing associations. With our expert advice, competitive premiums, and personal service, we make sure your property is covered correctly.
