Why we are the right choice
When we saw that there wasn’t a policy on the market that fully protected vacant properties, we created Renovation Unoccupied. The product is primarily aimed at residential property and commercial property that is to be converted to residential, but can also potentially accommodate commercial property that is not being converted too.

Product Documentation
