Property Protection Programs

Property Protection Programs foster peace of mind to owners, property managers and travel marketplace platforms by addressing needs not typically met in standard commercial liability and property programs.

WHY NEEDED?

Accidental Rental Damage Protection is needed to provide limited protection against damage to the contents of a vacation home and other furnished accommodations during a covered stay.

Real Property Protection is needed to protect property managers and owners in the event of more serious damage that occurs during a covered stay.

Because vacation homeowner-hosts may be considered liable in case of any accidents or injuries while vacation homes are rented, additional liability protection may be required.
