In most cases premiums paid for your investment property are tax deductible*.

Now is the perfect opportunity to also review your insurance arrangements for your investment property and here are a few questions to help you do just that:

• cover damage caused by tenant’s pets?
• cover accidental damage including clandestine drug labs?
• cover flood damage?
• cover losses suffered when your tenant is on a month-to-month lease?

If you are unsure of any of the above, it may be time to review your policy.
