Specialist solutions that build on your success
Despite macro-economic uncertainty, UK property investment presents a sturdy long-term opportunity. A consolidating housing market means wide investment choice at attractive prices, in prime locations and with increased rental demand. Meanwhile, a recovering commercial market across retail, leisure, office, education and industrial space widens the horizons for investors.
Wherever you are in the property investment spectrum – freeholder, pension fund trustee, asset manager, developer, owner, Law of Property Act Receiver or managing agent, one factor remains constant: risk. You face a series of threats – from potential falls in capital and rental value, void periods on empty properties and non-paying tenants to unforeseen expenditure and sooner or later, rises in interest rates.
While you can’t predict and plan for every eventuality, picking the right insurance broking specialist helps protect your portfolio and your business, minimising the areas of uninsured risk exposure that may otherwise cost you time and money.
