    Hey all, 

    Just about to settle on IP3.

    Doing a bit of shopping round for insurances and wanting to know whom the majority of investors tie their insurances up with.

    Currently all building through SGIO and LL Insurances with Terri Scheer however hearing a lot of bad press from Terri Scheer when it comes to actually paying out on a claim them having multiple outs tied up in legal jargon within their PDS that 'Joe not a lawyer' cannot decipher. I'm yet to have to claim yet but don't want to be kicked in the face when the day comes.

    Anyone recommend a decent LL Insurance company that they have made a claim with and have been happy with the level of service and $$$$$ paid out on a claim?

    I've made a couple of claims with YOUI of late – the first one caused some headaches….the second one was very smooth sailing. 

    Cheers

    From memory both claims were made under building insurance.

    Cheers

    We use a Specialist Broker and steer out clients that way.

    Just had a case where the client had only owned the property for a matter of weeks when the Hot Water "blew up".

    He contacted the Insurer direct and they say No it was covered yet we got wind of this sent it back to the Broker and "Heh Presto" claim honored and all paid for.

    Clients often want to go the cheaper option but sometimes you do get what you paid for.

    Cheers
