Compare Home and Contents Insurance Policies

With ING Home Insurance you can choose to take out a building policy, a contents policy, or a combined building and contents policy.

To make it easier to compare our home insurance policies, we offer two types tailored to suit your budget and insurance needs.

Home Insurance

Home insurance protects you against damage from fire, storms, burglary, fusion, water or liquid damage, vandalism, falling trees and even the accidental breakage of glass.

Premier home insurance

This includes simple things such as damaging furniture whilst redecorating or spilling red wine on the carpet.

Both ING Home Insurance types allow you to add options to your insurance policy for domestic workers' compensation, strata title mortgagee protection, or to extend your valuables insurance cover.

For ease of comparison, following are the key benefits of each type of the home and contents insurance policy: Buildings or contents insurance cover, contents insurance cover only, and buildings insurance cover only.
