If I purchase NAB Home Insurance, who is my insurer?

NAB Home Insurance is arranged and distributed by National Financial Management Limited, a related body corporate of NAB. We do this on behalf of Allianz, one of Australia’s largest general insurers, who supplies and underwrites this product. This means, if you purchase NAB Home Insurance, and need to make a claim, Allianz are there for you – helping you get back on track again as soon as possible.

Do I need building insurance if I pay body corporate fees or if my property has a strata title?

Your building may already be covered. Before you take out building insurance, we recommend you check with your body corporate or strata title manager first.

I'm a renter - can I just get contents insurance?

Yes, you can purchase a contents-only policy with the option to add cover for your portable contents (Personal Effects) away from home.

If I make a claim, how will my possessions be repaired or replaced?

Allianz has agreements with national suppliers to replace most items. They can often organise the quotes and repair or replacement of your possessions.

I'm about to install a new kitchen and renovate my bathroom - should I notify you?

If you’re starting renovations that will cost more than $50,000, it’s important that you notify Allianz as it may affect the terms and conditions of your home insurance policy. You may also need to consider increasing your sum insured to reflect any extensions or renovations to make sure you are adequately covered in the event of a home insurance claim.

I have started using my home for business purposes - should I notify you?

Yes, it is important that you tell Allianz about any change in the way you use your home as it may affect the decision to insure you.

In what other circumstances should I contact you?

You carry out alterations, additions, demolition, repairs or decorations to the buildings costing more than $50,000
Your home building has not been lived in (or will not be lived in) for more than 60 consecutive days
