Why Residential Strata Insurance matters

Strata properties involve shared ownership of common areas and facilities. Without the right insurance, residents and owners may face significant costs if property damage, accidents, or liability claims occur. Residential Strata Insurance provides financial protection and peace of mind for body corporates and communities.
Financial protection
Covers damage or loss to the building and shared property, reducing the financial burden on residents and owners.
Cover for the unexpected
From fires and storms to malicious damage and theft, Strata Insurance protects against a wide range of risks.
Peace of mind for owners and residents
Knowing the property’s structure and shared areas are protected allows owners and residents to enjoy their homes with confidence.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Does Strata Insurance cover my personal contents?

    No. Strata Insurance covers the building and common property but not individual unit owners’ contents or personal belongings. You will need a separate Contents or Landlord Insurance policy for those items.

  • What is the difference between Strata Insurance and Landlord Insurance?

    Strata Insurance protects the building and shared property on behalf of the body corporate. Landlord Insurance covers an individual unit owner’s fixtures, fittings, rental income, and liability risks associated with leasing their unit.

  • Who is responsible for arranging Strata Insurance?

    The body corporate or owners’ corporation is generally responsible for arranging Strata Insurance on behalf of all unit owners. Premiums are typically funded through strata levies.

  • Does Strata Insurance cover shared facilities?

    Yes. Strata policies can extend to features such as lifts, car parks, outbuildings, swimming pools, spas, tennis courts, and balconies.

  • Is Strata Insurance compulsory?

    Yes, in most states and territories in Australia. The specifics vary, but legislation generally requires body corporates to hold Strata Insurance to protect the building and common property.
