Saga would rather we left our house unoccupied
Posted on October 11th, 2011
We took buildings and contents insurance through Saga, because the policy allows houses to be empty for up to 60 days. We are retired and intend to travel abroad as much as we can. We have arranged a house exchange for one month with another retired couple from Australia.
We informed Saga which said that while our exchangers are in the house, there will be no cover for accidental damage or theft unless there is forced entry. We think we have reduced their risk rather than increased it, because the house is not left empty so there is less risk of theft or burst pipes.
Saga agrees there is less likelihood of frozen pipes but points out that if it is empty, there can be no accidental damage at all.
