Insurance Companies

[Macca]

Went to RACQ yesterday to pay membership (54 years) as well as sort out house contents insurance while renting .
1. Do not do Landlord's Insurance
2. Will only cover shipping container if under cover. Told them it was guaranteed vermin.weather proof, would be raised off the ground but not under cover ( could put under tarp.
3 We want to totally fill shed beside house with garden stuff & camping gear. Explained how securely it will be locked while house being rented- sorry no can do
4 . She rang the underwriter at head office but still no satisfaction.
5. I got home & emailed the above person which Beth at Redcliffe suggested we do.
Said that all premiums paid over 54 years would more than cover the premium for the shed Also mentioned that car/van are coming up for renewal 4th Feb & maybe we will go else where & will not be renewing house & contents when we move back to home.
Trouble is we do not want to loose the Ultimate RACQ cover.
Bloody stinks.
Now I guess we will have to start looking around for another insurer or go back to storage shed (RACQ will cover that as well as the container in a building).
Still have to find someone to get Land Lord's cover.

When I was on the road and still owned a house I used ANZ Bank Landlord's Insurance.

Kay, the very best Landlord Insurance is through Terri Scheer https://terrischeer.com.au/ I worked the last 5 years before retirement in Real Estate and they were the only company we would recommend. I'm surprised your Property Manager hasn't told you about them.
