    Features and benefits

    The better you understand your policy, the easier it will be if you ever have to claim.  

    Here is a limited summary of the benefits of a building insurance policy. For full details, of the terms, conditions, limits and exclusions that apply please read the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS), any applicable supplementary PDS and the Key Fact Sheet (KFS) before making a decision to purchase the insurance. Select the cover to suit your needs. Effective 16 December 2019.

     

    If you need to rebuild your home after total loss or damage, Allianz will help pay the reasonable costs of architects, engineers, surveyors and solicitors up to $5,000.

     

    Allianz offers protection for out of the ordinary but devastating events such as fire, storm and burglary.

     

    Rest easy, within the first 72 hours following a storm, Allianz have got you covered for loss or damage caused by soil movement, landslide, mudslide or subsidence caused by a storm.

     

    If your buildings are totally destroyed and need to be rebuilt, in addition to your buildings sum insured, Allianz will pay up to $5,000 to help you make the new buildings more environmentally friendly.

     

    If your Building is damaged by an insured event during the period of insurance to such an extent that you can’t live in your home buildings, Allianz pay the additional costs for temporary accommodation for you up to 10% of the building or contents sum insured (as applicable) and up to $500 for temporary accommodation for your pets in a commercial boarding establishment.

     

    Allianz will cover the cost, up to $1,000, to replace the locks or cylinders of any external door or window following an actual or attempted theft or burglary if the key is stolen or you believe the key has been copied.

    You are covered for loss or damage caused by vandalism or a malicious act.

  • Optional covers

    Optional covers

    Add any of these optional covers for an additional premium and greater cover.

     

    The accidental damage cover option helps protect you in the event of accidental unexpected mishaps that are caused unintentionally – giving you greater coverage for your home building.

    The Motor burnout option covers you if an electrical current damages your household electrical motors.

    Flood cover may be available as an optional cover to your buildings. A 72 hour exclusion period applies.

    Cover for a domestic worker (e.g. gardener or cleaner), if they are injured while working for you at the insured address. Only available in ACT, WA and TAS.

  • Calculators

    Home building calculator

    It’s up to you to decide the sums insured, and the type and level of cover that you want to take out.

    People generally want enough insurance to cover the property’s estimated replacement value. If you don’t have enough cover, you could end up having to cover some of the costs yourself.

    Remember, Allianz will only pay up to the amount of your loss or the sum insured, whichever is the lesser - so you should also be careful not to over insure. That's why we've provided the calculator. It works as a guide to help you estimate the replacement value of your home building.

Note for existing customers: If you purchased home or landlord insurance before 16 December 2019, please refer to the relevant Vital, Classic or Prestige Home Insurance or Landlord Insurance Product Disclosure Statements, any applicable supplementary PDS and Buildings or Contents Key Fact Sheet/s.

Home, Contents and Landlord Insurance is arranged by Newcastle Permanent Building Society Limited ACN 087 651 992, AFS Licence No. / Australian Credit Licence 238273 (NPBS) and is issued by the insurer Allianz Australia Insurance Limited ABN 15 000 122 850, AFS Licence No. 234708 (Allianz). In arranging this insurance, NPBS acts under its own AFS Licence and as agent for Allianz under an agreement with Allianz. This information is general advice only and does not take into account your objectives, financial situation or needs. Policy terms, conditions, limits and exclusions apply. You should consider whether or not the insurance is appropriate for you and the relevant Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) in deciding whether to buy or continue to hold any of these insurance products. You can get a PDS for the relevant insurance product from any branch of NPBS or by phoning 13 19 87. We will receive a commission that is a percentage of the premium for insurance product sales. Our staff earn a salary and may also be eligible for annual and other discretionary performance bonuses that are based on a number of factors that include the amount of insurance products sold. Discretionary bonuses may be of a monetary or non-monetary nature. We may also receive other benefits under our agreement with Allianz that are not directly related to the services we provide you. We also have an arrangement with a related company of Allianz under which we provide services including but not limited to training, marketing, administrative and support services relating to some Allianz insurance products, and for this we receive a share of aggregate profits from those Allianz insurance products that we arrange. Ask us for more details before we provide you with any services. Further details can also be found in our Financial Services Guide.
This is a limited summary of cover only. For full details of the terms, conditions, limits and exclusions about our home insurances please refer to the relevant relevant Home and/or Landlord Product Disclosure Statements (PDS) and any applicable supplementary PDS before making a decision to purchase the insurance. To see some of the events covered and not covered, please refer to the Home Buildings, Home Contents, Landlord Buildings or Landlord Contents Key Fact Sheets (KFS).
~When you take out a new policy, we calculate your No Claims Bonus based on your home or landlords (as applicable) insurance claims history. To qualify for the maximum No Claim Bonus of 30%, home insurance customers must have had no Building or Contents insurance claims in the preceding five years. Landlord customers must have had no Landlord insurance claims in the preceding 3 years. However, customers who have had claims may still qualify for a reduced No Claim Bonus.
**If you are eligible for more than one discount, Allianz applies them in a predetermined order. This means any subsequent discount will be applied to the reduced premium amount after applying any prior discounts and the effect of the subsequent discount will be reduced. For example, the aggregate effect of applying two 10% discounts consecutively means that you will not see the full benefit of both these discounts.
Discounts do not apply to taxes or government charges.
Discounts do not apply to optional covers for Domestic Workers Compensation / Landlord Workers Compensation, and may not apply to other optional covers (if available and selected).
Any discounts/entitlements may be subject to rounding and may only apply to the extent that any minimum premium is not reached.
<If you choose to pay your premium by instalments you do not pay us any more than if you pay your premium in one lump sum annually. The premiums payable by instalments may be subject to minor adjustments (upwards or downwards) due to rounding. Note: Your financial institution may apply transaction fees to instalment payments.
