Private international host protection insurance

[Doron2]

Hi,

The airbnb host protection insurance, i.e. the coverage of claims by guests, is limited to very few countries:https://www.airbnb.com/host-protection-insurance

I live in Israel. This airbnb insurance is not covering my country. Unfortunately also any private homeowner insurance here is problematic regarding guests which are paying and staying where the host lives, and there is no way to customize it for this need.

Does anyone have information about a reliable company which makes such insurance for property in other country?

Thanks,
Doron

Doron,

I'm not certain about Israel, but I contacted my insurance company and made sure they covered the gaps in the Airbnb policy and I also increased the coverage on my umbrella policy should something unnusual happen. 

I have a friend that has used Kef International before - they probably offer homeowners insurance and/or some sort of liability coverage there...

Cheers

Thanks. The insurance companies in Israel do not want to do that.

The only Kef International I found is a shipping company.

@Doron2 Yes, that is the one. I believe they can refer you to a couple of agents... that is the relocation company my colleague spoke about that also handled his insurance.

Let me know if that helps at all.
