Property Insurance and Warranties Guide

Compare insurance coverage with the actual risk

Inventory the property, common areas, critical equipment and activities to decide which loss scenarios require protection. For every proposed policy read the insured risks, exclusions, limits, deductible, insured party, claim procedure and renewal date. Record warranties and construction defects separately from insurance promises, and establish what happens if ownership changes. Request written clarification for any ambiguous exclusion; an attractive premium alone cannot establish adequate protection.

Practical verification checklist

Coverage review: List insured assets, perils, exclusions, deductibles, limits, renewal dates and claim-notification requirements for each policy. Compare the policy schedule with the actual unit, shared areas and intended rental use. Keep photographs, inventory and maintenance evidence, and check gaps between compulsory cover and optional building, contents or liability protection.

Building insurance Risk Review

Building insurance Risk Review

For “Building insurance Risk Review”, the land-registry record must be separated from marketing descriptions. TKGM lists party identification and, where representation is used, the representation document among sale-transaction materials; the registered owner, independent-unit details and recorded restrictions remain the controlling evidence when descriptions conflict. Names, identity or passport data and property identifiers should therefore be reconciled before signature, and the registry output relied upon should be preserved with its retrieval date.

Building insurance Decision Framework

Building insurance Decision Framework

For “Building insurance Decision Framework”, authenticity is established through the issuing authority and chain of acquisition, not by the appearance of a PDF or an institutional logo. If bank-account or payment instructions change by email or message, the change should be confirmed through an independent, previously verified channel before funds move; a genuine contract does not make later payment instructions automatically genuine. Official systems such as EİDS or Web Tapu prove only the elements within their scope and should not be used to legitimize unrelated data.

Buyer Questions for Building insurance

Buyer Questions for Building insurance

Buyer Questions for Building insurance A buyer should ask whether the policy shown matches the exact unit/address and is current through the relevant handover/closing period. Check the insured party and policy number rather than accepting a generic building certificate. Ask separately what DASK covers and what additional policy covers: insured perils, building versus contents, liability, exclusions, limits and deductibles. Do not interpret “insured” as “all-risk.” For apartments, ask who insures common areas and major building systems, whether the management can provide current evidence, and what the buyer must arrange personally after transfer.
