Home insurance
Make sure you have a valid home insurance when moving to a new apartment! You need your own home insurance to cover the belongings inside your apartment. POAS’s property insurance covers the building’s structures and fixed furnishings only. Tenants’ own furnishings and belongings are covered by tenants’ own home insurance only. In addition, POAS’s property insurance does not cover damage caused by the tenants’ furnishings or equipment. Damages resulting, for example, from broken fish tank, washing machine or similar, can only be reimbursed from tenants’ own home insurance.
