Ooba offers insurance policy for people who would want to insure their homes.
If a fire, flood or any other unforeseen disaster were to damage or completely destroy your home, you’d be faced with the stress of having to rebuild and find alternative accommodation. You’d also be forced to pay a bond instalment on an asset that no longer exists. Not fair. But that’s the reality.
That’s why ooba’s Buildings Protector is the essential building insurance plan, if you’re buying a property. This insurance is a statutory requirement if the property is bonded. So if you want to go ahead and purchase a property, you must be covered.
ooba Buildings Protector is a comprehensive plan that protects the structure of your home and all the permanent fixtures and fittings in it, against damage caused as a result of an unforeseen event such as fire, flood, lightening etc.
Ooba’s Buildings Protector cover has highly competitive premiums and comes with several unique value-added benefits. Our policy is tailor made for you, the home owner. The company will make sure you are correctly insured.
One of the company’s Insurance Specialists will contact you, if required, with information on their Buildings Protector Plan.
