Allianz Landlord Insurance
A residential investment property needs to be appropriately insured. Landlord insurance can give you the confidence that your property will be covered should something go wrong. Allianz Landlord Insurance through HSBC Bank Australia Limited covers the property and/or the contents you provide for your tenant's use from loss or damage by insured events.
To help you decide the cover you need, here's a brief outline of the difference between Buildings and Contents cover:

Buildings: designed to cover the physical structures that make up your property, like the house itself, garage, sheds, permanently installed swimming pools and decks.
-
Contents: designed to cover items at your property – from furniture, removable domestic appliances and white goods which belong to you as the landlord and that you have provided for the use of your tenant. It also covers your carpets and window furnishings.
