Can I take out landlord insurance?

Yes. If you own a property in the Netherlands and are renting it out, building insurance is recommended. In fact, your mortgage lender will usually require it. Aside from building insurance, landlords may consider legal expenses insurance. This will cover you in case your tenants lodge a claim against you. If you are looking to take out building insurance for a rental property, please let your insurance provider know as special terms and conditions may apply. Your tenants will be able to take out their own household contents insurance.
