At Last - Insurance for Turkish property with PLI
« on: January 17, 2007, 17:29:03 PM »
After years of searching, I have finally found a UK based company who offer buildings and contents insurance for properties in Turkey, who include £2,000,000 Public Liability Insurance cover.

Intasure are based in Surrey, and specialise in 'niche' insurance markets. They have a policy which seems pretty much exactly what we have been looking for:

(Quote)

Included with @Intasure

    * Your cover is underwritten by one of the worlds leading insurers - Aviva
    * Fully comprehensive cover
    * Your property is covered whether occupied or unoccupied
    * Your property is covered if let short term or long term
    * Competitive rates
    * No claims discounts
    * Excess from just £50
    * All policy documents are in English and if you have an enquiry or claim you talk directly to a UK based, English speaking support team
    * Policy covers your swimming pool as well as buildings
    * Policy covers public liability of £2m in regard to buildings and contents (traditionally, most policies provide minimal public liability cover)
    * Covers loss of rent following a claim
    * Wider cover than most standard buildings and contents policies
    * Protects your valuable contents - new for old</b>

They have also decided to partner with CBF - so if you could kindly add our partner number <b>202926</b> to you quote request (box provided on form), they can track how we are doing. It will not make any difference to your quotation figure.

You can request a quotation here: Intasure Turkish Property Insurance

Don't forget to let us all know how you get on.

Scunner - do you know how competitive these folks are in terms of prices?  I am thinking about renewing but dont want to start a dialogue if I am going to find out they are twice the price.

I hadn't a clue until Mike's post above - that looks really good.

Worth it for the public liability alone if you rent, and I'd say for the chance to deal with it yourself, in the UK, with British people on the other end of the phone.

The best advice I had on property insurance from companies here in Turkey was from the boss of one of the big developers - "If you want insurance, get the cheapest, they don't pay anyway".

Scunner - having read other psots I'm sure that you are right on this. Price quoted looks good so I will contact them as well.

Just reading the front page it is indicating home insurance for holiday homes in Turkey but not for residents - is that right?  Our home insurance is not due until June but I might be looking to change this year.

Before jumping in on this one check out the point Teresa raised and also check out the subject of the cover for cash and the restrictions on the use of a safe and the requirements for door locks.
The insurer is Aviva in Istanbul the company we are insured with and  arranged here in Fethiye but they do NOT cover cash. So do they cover cash if you use this English broker[?]
As a point of interest our premium for a five bedroom apartment in Fethiye: Buildings and contents was £144 so not dissimilar to the figure quoted (excluding DASK). :)

Have contacted this company and they will only insure holidays homes in  Turkey.
If you have relocated to Turkey they will not cover you.

If you particularly want to use Aviva then try Evrensel Sigorta in Fethiye.They will cover you as a resident. :)
