Switch and save on your business insurance

Real estate agents face many risks, from misleading or deceptive conduct to clients falling over in their office. 

But the often-manual process of getting or even renewing business insurance can be challenging to navigate for time-poor real estate agents. 

Fortunately, BizCover is an online service that features tailored business insurance products for real estate professionals. 

Insurance is a necessary part of being a real estate agent, but that doesn’t mean it has to be expensive. Instant cover at a great price could be only minutes away.

What insurance policies are available?

There are a variety of insurance products designed to protect real estate agents from the financially and reputationally damaging consequences of a claim. 

Professional Indemnity (PI) insurance* is the only policy type that is mandated for agents either by an industry body or at state level. 

It is designed for professionals who provide a specialist service or advice, protecting against financial loss and legal costs in the event of a claim. 

Consider checking with your state government or local governing body to ensure you are meeting your responsibilities. 

Public Liability insurance* is another essential cover for real estate agents who interact with clients and the public. 

From a client accidentally slipping over to you clumsily damaging their property, things don’t always go to plan, and that’s where Public Liability insurance saves the day.

It’s designed to protect you and your real estate agency if a third party is injured or sustains property damage due to your negligent business activities.

Business Insurance (BizPack)* is designed to provide cover for your business contents, stock, tools and commercial premises when an insured event occurs (such as fire, storm, theft or even accidental damage). 

A Business Insurance package can also cover your portable equipment, glass and for loss of revenue due to business interruption in specified circumstances. It can also provide cover for public liability, tax audit, employment practices and statutory liability risks.
