Monitor the risk profile of your tenants
You must advise us as soon as possible of any change to the risk profile of any tenant residing on your premises. We may impose additional terms and conditions.
Notify us about any improvements to your buildings
If you increase the value of your buildings through any alterations, extensions or improvements, we will increase your cover by up to the percentage stated in the Schedule, provided that you tell us immediately and pay any additional premium required.
