All rentals: housing insurance for medium & long term rentals
Whether the rented property is your primary residence (long-term rental) or not (medium-term rental), you must take out a housing insurance.
This insurance is mandatory and must be subscribed before entering the rented accommodation.
Each year, the owner is entitled to require proof of the validity of this insurance as well as at the time of signing the lease. If you cannot provide your insurance certificate, this may be a reason for terminating your lease.
You're free to chose and can take out this type of insurance with any insurer. Feel free to compare the different offers.
As with all insurance, read your contract carefully and be vigilant about the conditions (Packages, exclusions, reimbursement limits).

Medium-term rentals : rental insurance policy by AXA
For each rental processed via our site, we offer an Axa rental insurance free of charge provided the accommodation does not constitute your primary residence.
The Axa housing insurance policy covers tenants for accommodation rentals up to 1 year in France against the events below :
- Tenancy liability in case of fire, explosion, water damage or forst arising in the rented property
- Recourse by neighbours and third-parties following fire, explosion, water damage or forst arising in the rented property
- Property damage liability for damage caused accidentally in the rented property
This insurance does not cover either the tenants' belongings beyond 5,000€ nor their civil liability and therefore does not replace a complete multirisk housing insurance ("assurance multi-risques habitation").
