Our verdict

  • NAB landlord insurance comes with a 30% no claim bonus if you make no landlord insurance claims in 3 years — not many other insurers we looked at offer this.
  • It's good if you have a furnished flat — you can get 10% off when you combine building and contents cover.
  • Its 10% online discount isn't the largest offer available — competitors such as Budget Direct, Australian Seniors and Domain all offer more.

Review by our insurance and innovations editor Gary Ross Hunter

Bottom line about NAB landlord insurance

NAB landlord insurance values loyal customers with its 30% no claim bonus and it's one of the few insurers to give you money off if you take out combined cover. However, it's possible to get bigger discounts elsewhere.
