Default House insurance recommendations needed for rental

Can anyone recommend an insurance company for contents only for our rental which we took the keys for today?

Thanks in advance,
David.

We used ANZ for contents only when we were renting. Changed to www.realinsurance.com.au for both house and contents as they offered a better deal. HTH. Good luck in the new house Michelle x

We used AAMI as they have a 'renters' insurance which just covers fire & theft of contents http://www.aami.com.au/?247SEM

and I second REAL insurance for when you get your house, we just did ours with them and they're really competitive http://www.realinsurance.com.au/defa...FRsFagodGwIm1w

Budget is pretty competitive too!

Yep I'd go with those too - they were very professional and the cheapest too

I think I tried about 10 of the most common providers and hsbc was by far the cheapest.

Went with these in the end due to the accidental damage coverage and cover for items outside the home.

Thanks for all the recommendations
