As an English Speaking person in Germany I want to find Public Liability Insurance to cover a Free Exhibition set up in woods that I own. Can anyone recommend a company. Unfortunately Gothaer who are my current insurers have not responded to an email sent a week ago.
Hello – I am looking for information on “Renter’s Insurance”. Insurance that protects me, if I damage something in the Rental House I live in.
Dear Eddie,
damage to rented property is usually covered by a private liability insurance. If you look for example at the conditions of Coya or getsafe you will see that this is covered by their policies.
Best Regards,
Dominik
