    Hi there,

    I thought I’de just post on this thread as I found it when I was looking for student accommodation insurance myself and there was no real answers and I was actually a bit confused when I read this thread.

    I started another thread on this forum asking if anyone had any updated info on this type of insurance and someone suggested calling the guys at this website http://studentaccommodationinsurance.com.au/. Basically I did and the lady there helped us out with all the info we needed.

    Hopefully this can help someone else in the future and save a few hours researching.

    Thanks for that. I called the people off that website and spoke to Karen who sounds like she deals with this kind of insurance all the time.

    We did the math and basically it looks like the property is going to work out as the cost to get the property up to council spec isn’t going to be that much and its only 2 km to a uni and tafe and I know there’s a constant stream of students looking for accommodation in the area as I have lived close by for many years.

    Thanks for your help.

    Yeah I think $85 may even be a little on the low side for a good tradie. If you think that a massage costs more than that per hour I think it;s easily justified.

    Also, for some jobs many tradies will only give you an hourly figure because there could be a high chance that things will be a little more pear shaped when they look deeper.

    Good to hear you had a good experience here.
