Natwest Home Insurance

NatWest home insurance can protect your home and possessions against a range of issues including theft, fire, flooding, accidental damage and more.

Home insurance generally falls in to three categories:

• Buildings insurance
• Contents insurance
• Joint buildings and contents insurance

Which of these you need will depend on your personal circumstances. Renters will normally only need contents insurance as your landlord should cover the building. Homeowners will usually require both buildings and contents insurance, with buildings insurance being a standard requirement for most mortgages.

Things to consider when taking out insurance

Here are a few things to consider when looking for an insurance policy or package to suit you.

Is your property specialist?

If you own a listed building or if your property has an unusual feature such as a thatched roof, you may need specialist cover.

Do you need buildings and content cover?

While it’s generally advised that you take out both, it does depend on your individual circumstances. Insurance providers often provide individual policies as well as joint policies.

Does the policy provide enough cover?

All policies have their limits so you need to make sure that your home is covered for the rebuild value rather than the market value. It’s also worth costing your contents to make sure your chosen policy will be enough to cover it all.
