Life Insurance and Critical Illness Cover

Certainly a block policy (cover increasable as borrowing increases) sounds cost-effective. Assurance cover is desirable to protect family/dependents in case of a main earner's illness or death, but that is scarcely a real problem for investment properties which the patient's/deceased's family could simply sell without impact on the family home.

Life Insurance and Critical Illness Cover
Hi
Do you need life insurance and/or critical illness cover for rental properties?
Is there any way of doing one cover for a whole portfolio instead of
a policy on each property?
What are the advantages/disadvantages?
I have these both for my main residential property but find the cost
is adding up for my rental properties.
Please give me your views experts,

by AndrewDodThis is only sort-of true - even for Scotland
The Scottish arrangement really just boils down to the mechanism of arrangement - it still remains impossible for an individual to fully insure in isolation a block of asset up in the sky. The arrangement requires/only works at all because it...-

by DoricPixieIt depends who owns them which would be set out in the title deeds along with how the communal areas you are owner/part-owner of should be insured.
