Did you know that taking in a lodger can invalidate your contents insurance? Hardly any insurers cover your posessions if you take in a lodger. Finding out and making sure you're covered before your lodger moves in can save you time, money and inconvenience in the long run. Find out when it's too late and, well, it's too late.
So, what can you do? We've had good reports from several of our users about a company who provide specialist insurance for people with up to six lodgers. They can even cover you if your lodger works from home (depending on the type of work your lodger does).
To find out more visit EmberJD Lodger Insurance or call 020 8941 2204 and ask for Steve Hayton or David Nash. Make sure you mention SpareRoom when you call so they know which policy you're calling about.
