Discovery Building Insurance: Protect Your Property with African Land

For property owners and investors across Africa, building insurance is an essential tool to safeguard investments. Discovery Building Insurance offers coverage that protects your property against risks like fire, theft, or natural damage. African Land explains how building insurance works, why it is important for homeowners and investors, and how it supports long-term property investment strategies.


What Is Discovery Building Insurance?

Discovery Building Insurance is a property insurance product designed to protect the physical structure of your property. It covers risks such as:

  • Fire and smoke damage

  • Storms, floods, or other natural hazards

  • Theft or vandalism

  • Accidental structural damage

This type of insurance ensures that, in the event of damage, property owners can repair or rebuild without incurring full costs themselves.


Why Property Investors Should Consider Building Insurance

  1. Financial Protection
    Building insurance safeguards your investment, ensuring that unexpected damages don’t result in substantial out-of-pocket expenses.

  2. Tenant Security
    For landlords, insured properties give tenants confidence in the safety and reliability of the premises.

  3. Mortgage Requirement
    Many financial institutions require building insurance before approving property loans, protecting both the lender and the investor.

  4. Peace of Mind
    Insurance reduces risk exposure, allowing investors to focus on managing properties and growing their portfolios.

African Land advises all property investors to include building insurance as part of a comprehensive property investment strategy.

  2. Understand Exclusions – Know which risks are covered and which require additional riders.

  3. Review Premiums and Deductibles – Balance affordability with adequate protection.

  4. Consider Additional Coverage – Include contents, tenant liability, or accidental damage where needed.

  5. Regularly Update Policies – Review coverage periodically as property values and conditions change.
