Block of flats insurance for freeholders
A block of flats policy covers the whole building, including common parts like stairs and hallways, plus property owners’ liability. It is usually arranged by the freeholder or management company.
Common parts
Lifts, stairs, gates and gardens are often where liability claims happen.
Leaseholders
Leaseholders usually insure their own contents; the building is covered centrally.
Directors’ cover
Directors of a residents’ management company may want directors’ and officers’ cover.
