Landlord Insurance

Owning a residential rental property is a growing trend among homeowners in Ontario. As the landlord for a rented dwelling, it’s important to have the right protection.

Whether you purchase a home for a child who is away at school, or simply want to have an additional form of income, you need the insurance coverage to protect your investment from potential risks.

Our team can offer landlord insurance protection for any residential rental property that you may own in Ontario. Depending on the type of coverage you’re looking for, we can add the rental property to your existing home insurance policy as a 2nd property, or as its own individual policy.
