How could different types of tenants affect my insurance policy?
There are as many types of tenants as there are rental properties. Who you, as a landlord, chooses to rent to - or the type of tenant your property attracts - depends on many factors including your own preferences, the type of property you are renting and the location of the property.
There are pros and cons to any tenant type and it is a good idea to have some idea of the tenant you would like to attract when you market your buy-to-let.
Each tenant type will have their own requirements, and it is worth remembering that these requirements - or a tenants’ status - could have an impact on your landlord's insurance policy or mortgage agreement.
View our guide for a full breakdown of the advantage and disadvantages of each tenant type from - housing association tenants, older renters, and student tenants to refugees and asylum seeker tenants.
