Student in a HMO property

Many insurance providers claim they can insure multi tenanted properties, more specifically HMO properties; however what they do to accommodate them on their schemes is quote them as bedsits!  By doing this you end up paying more than you would need to.

Bedsits are a higher risk for insurers than HMO’s, mainly due to the cooking exposure in the rooms, and also the short term in which the tenants are in the rooms for, as bedsits tend to be used on a very short term basis.    Whereas HMO’s generally have communal kitchen areas, which means only one area in which any cooking takes place reducing the potential fire risks of a bedsit, and in most cases are let on normal AST’s.
