Home Insurance Swapping - the vast majority of home insurance polices will only cover the policyholder, if the property is owner occupied, once it is “swapped” (even for a very short period) during the period where the policyholder is not in residence, it is likely that cover will not be in force.
Choosing a Home Insurance Provider - in almost all cases, the main object of shopping around for a revised home insurance quotation is to save money. Hardly anyone, shops around for “better cover” although of course, this should also be a consideration when comparing prices from different insurers.
Claims and Services - it is only at the time you wish to make a claim that you see the true value of your insurance policy. The way that you are treated at this time and your insurance companies reaction to your situation can be a deciding factor in choosing to continue with your relationship with them at renewal time.
Small print of a Home Insurance Policy - All insurance policies of what ever description will contain terms and conditions, which some people like to refer to as small print. (Literally small printing containing terms & conditions that is difficult to read).

Before embarking on renting a room, it is probably best to check with your home insurance company, to make sure that your policy will still cover you.
