Before applying for Building insurance

There are a few important factors to consider before applying for home contents or building cover. MiWay advises clients to make sure they insure their household contents at the value of a replacement.

When you are underinsured, you could probably lose out on at least 50% of the replacement value, and only receive a portion when you need to buy new items to the value of the lump sum.

MiWay will guide you all the way

MiWay will assist you in determining the right value of your insured items as well as your building, as they don’t want you to lose out or be unhappy should you need to claim. MiWay always suggests making a list of all the items in your home and estimating the value of replacing each item. Make sure you have detailed and specific information for everything on your list.

MiWay also offers Home contents insurance

If you are renting, you can still insure your home contents - this is often called renters insurance and home contents cover. You wouldn’t have to insure the building for damages, as your landlord should have this cover in place already.

But your home contents are still your most valuable assets and need to be insured as per normal and contact MiWay to receive an offer on your insurance quote to get the perfect cover.

Get a lower excess amount on your Building insurance

When it comes to your home security, there are no specific criteria or quality of security on your home. If you have a security system installed you would have a lower excess on the overall claim, as this acts as a deterrent to thieves. So, they highly recommend having burglar bars or an alarm system in place.

MiWay sees itself as an efficient insurance firm.

All MiWay payouts are processed quickly to ensure there is no wasted time on replacing or repairing the damages endured on your home. There are no specific time frames, as the sooner you get your claim to MiWay, the quicker they pay you out. MiWay can also suggest a list of preferred handymen, and suppliers who can assist with your repairs, who fall in line with their policy regulations.
