Reporting obligation: Always report vacancies!

Is your building empty? Report this to your insurer within 30 days. Vacancy is an increase in risk. If you do not do this, the insurer may refuse to pay out in the event of damage, even if you pay the premium. You must also report anti-squatting, temporary occupancy or change of use. We will help you with the correct notification.

Why Increased Risk at Vacancy?

👁️ No Supervision

No daily inspection means that damage (leakage, burglary) is only discovered late. Small problems become major damage.

🔓 Burglary & Squatting

Vacant buildings are attractive to burglars and squatters. Copper theft, vandalism and illegal use are lurking.

🔥 Arson

Vacant buildings are more likely to be victims of arson. No residents means no quick detection or extinguishing.

💧 Water damage

Leaks go unnoticed. Frost damage to pipes when heating is off. Flooding due to clogged gutters.

🌿 Hemp farm

Criminals use vacant buildings for cannabis cultivation. This greatly increases fire and environmental risk and leads to insurance exclusion.

📉 Deterioration

Overdue maintenance, graffiti and disrepair make the building even more attractive to criminals and more difficult to insure.

Prevention & Insurability

🔒 Mandatory Measures

  • Periodic check (weekly/biweekly)
  • Working alarm system enabled
  • Night lights on (deterrence)
  • Delete mail regularly
  • Remove graffiti immediately
  • Continue to perform gutter maintenance

💡 Premium Reduction Tips

  • Anti-squatting/vacancy management (KLB certified)
  • Basic heating on (frost prevention)
  • Shut off water pipes in winter
  • Install cameras with storage
  • Fencing or boarding at windows
  • Regular outdoor inspection of the site

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, but not with all insurers. Standard insurance often only offers fire/storm when it is vacant. We work with specialized insurers who offer extensive coverage, even in the event of long-term vacancy.
Yes, this is mandatory! Vacancy is an increase in risk that you must report within 30 days. If you do not do this, the insurer may refuse to pay out in the event of damage. You must also report anti-squatting or temporary occupancy.
Vacant buildings have higher risks: no daily inspection, damage is discovered late, attractive to burglars/squatters, increased risk of vandalism and arson. Many insurers do not accept vacancy.
Yes, provided you report this to the insurer. Anti-squatting can even improve insurability and premium through supervision. If you work with a KLB-certified vacancy manager, some insurers offer additional benefits.
You must report this, even if the nursery has been dismantled. A previous cannabis farm increases the risk (after-risk, attracting effect to criminals). Many insurers will cancel the policy, but we are looking for solutions.
Often required: periodic inspection (weekly), working alarm system, night lights on, removing mail, removing graffiti immediately, maintenance of gutters. If there is a risk of frost: turn on the heating or close the pipes.
This varies per insurer. Some use 2-3 months as a limit, others accept long-term vacancy under certain conditions. After 2 years of vacancy it is very difficult to find insurance from regular insurers.
Not standard! Many insurers only offer fire/storm cover if the property is vacant. We work with insurers who also cover water damage, burglary and vandalism for vacant properties.
