Vacation Rental Insurance

Policy Highlights: Insurance For Short-Term Vacation Rental Owners

The Proper Insurance® policy replaces the property owners current homeowner’s (HO) or landlord (DP) policy. It is written as a business policy, giving the short-term vacation rental owner comprehensive coverage for their building(s), contents, commercial business liability, and business income. It also includes personal liability when the short-term or vacation rental “doubles” as the owners primary residence. The challenge was quadruple use or occupancy of the properties; as most vacation rental properties are used for commercial short-term rental use, personal use, at times unoccupied, and some have guests or tenants for over 30 days. With trademarked endorsements, the Proper Policy covers you and your property for all four uses. Think of it as a homeowner’s policy, a landlord policy, and a business policy all wrapped into one! It’s all-inclusive insurance that was custom-penned with Lloyd’s of London and covers the unique risks associated with short-term vacation rental properties. It’s the most comprehensive insurance available on the market today so you can have peace of mind.
