Frequently Asked Questions

No, home insurance is not mandatory by law, but it is strongly recommended. It protects your property and assets from financial losses due to natural disasters, theft, or accidental damage. Lenders may require building insurance when providing home loans.

Yes, tenants can purchase contents-only insurance to protect household items they own, such as furniture, electronics, and personal belongings. Building insurance is typically the responsibility of the homeowner or landlord.

Typical exclusions include damage from wear and tear, war, intentional damage, electrical/mechanical breakdowns, or negligence. Some policies also exclude loss of cash or documents unless specifically covered under add-ons.

Standard home insurance is available for completed structures. However, some insurers offer specialized policies for homes under construction, covering fire and allied perils. It’s best to check with the insurer for eligibility and conditions.

The premium is based on factors such as the cost of reconstruction, contents value, location, risk exposure (flood or earthquake-prone zones), and add-ons selected. Owners of high-value properties or flats in metros may have slightly higher premiums.

The building sum insured should be based on the reconstruction cost, not market value. For contents, you should declare an approximate value of household items, appliances, and valuables. Choosing adequate cover ensures smoother claim settlements.

Yes, most insurers allow cancellation provided there is a valid reason (e.g., property sold or insured under another policy). A refund of unused premium may be processed after deductions, depending on how long the policy was active.

Once documents are submitted and survey is completed, insurers usually settle claims within 7 to 15 working days. In complex cases involving structural damage or high-value loss, it may take longer. Upsure helps fast-track the process for our customers.
