What it is

sectional title cover, explained.

Your body corporate insures the building structure, but owners are exposed to gaps: internal improvements, fixtures, excess payments, personal liability and contents. Sectional title cover fills those gaps.

FAQs

Common questions about sectional title cover.

Doesn't my levy already cover insurance?

+

Your body corporate insures the main structure under STIA. It does NOT cover your contents, fittings, improvements, or excess payments — those are your responsibility.

What's the most common claim?

+

Burst geysers leaking into neighbouring units — and you may be liable for both the body corporate excess and damage to other owners' contents.

Do I need this if I'm renting?

+

If you're a tenant, you only need contents cover. This product is for owners of sectional title units.

Can I bundle landlord cover?

+

Yes. If you let your unit, we add loss-of-rent and tenant default cover.

Is buildings insurance compulsory in South Africa?

It's not legally required, but every bank requires it as a condition of your home loan. If you own your home outright it remains strongly recommended — rebuilding even part of a structure can run into millions of rand.

What does household contents insurance cover?

Household contents insurance covers the movable items inside your home — furniture, appliances, electronics, clothing, linen, crockery, jewellery kept at home and similar belongings — against theft, fire, storm and water damage, and listed accidental damage. It does not cover the building structure itself; that's buildings insurance.
