What does an insurance policy for a separate house cover?

With an insurance policy for a separate house you can get coverage for the movables, surfaces and fixtures of your house against fire, storm and water damage, among others. You can also include equipment breakage cover to prepare against breakages of home appliances, such as the refrigerator, stove and dishwasher, and movable equipment like the TV set.  

You can tailor your insurance policy for a separate house by specifying the deductible. When protecting your movable property, we will suggest a suitable maximum compensation based on the floor area of your home. If you wish, you can increase the maximum compensation. As an owner-customer of an OP cooperative bank you are entitled to a deductible benefit of 250 euros, which means that you might not pay any deductible in case of fire, storm and criminal damage to your house, if you have an insurance policy for a separate house.

Insurance for a separate house, outbuildings and outdoor structures on the premises

The outbuildings and outdoor structures on the premises and the garden are not automatically included in the insurance policy for a separate house; they must be insured by a separate policy. If you want to insure the outdoor structures, outbuildings or garden of a separate house belonging to a housing company, just contact our experts by phone at 010 253 1333 (in English), Mon–Fri 9.00-18.00, 0303 0303 (in Finnish).

Cover for movables outside the home

A home insurance policy for a separate house protects your movables outside the house, too. The insurance covers damage up to 5,000 euros for breakage of your belongings occurring outside your home but within the Nordic Countries. If your belongings get stolen from a motor vehicle, a trailer or from a storage unit outside a motor vehicle or trailer, the boot of a motor vehicle, a boat or a tent, the insurance covers losses up to 1,000 euros. However, the prerequisite is that the loss occurs less than 50 kilometres away from your home, your place of study or your holiday home.

If your home insurance is valid while you are moving house, we also cover damage occurring if, for example, you TV set falls and breaks during removal. Be sure to insure your new flat or house without delay, as moving cover applies only to your insured belongings.

Shareholders’ extended liability

We recommend that you pay special attention to the maximum compensation for parts of your home and that you set the right amount. Our Home Insurance will also cover liabilities transferred to shareholders in the housing company’s articles of association, such as the costs of the property’s HVAC engineering, plumbing and even roofing work.

In most cases, we compensate home contents for up to 5,000 euros when they are temporarily outside your home.

We compensate home contents up to 1,000 euros if they are stolen from, for example, your car, trailer, boat or tent that is in the yard of your home, place of study or holiday home or a straight-line distance of 50 km from them.
