Residents Liability Insurance
Cover for residents’ associations, land owners and management companies
Our Residents Liability Insurance provides essential cover to safeguard residents’ associations, land owners and management companies against potential risks and liabilities.
What is Residents Liability Insurance?
Residents Liability Insurance, sometimes referred to as Private Road Insurance, or Land Liability Insurance, is designed to cover legal liability for accidents or damage occurring in communal areas of a residential property. It protects residents’ associations, freeholders, and management companies against claims made by third parties, such as visitors, contractors, or even residents themselves, due to incidents that occur in shared spaces.
