Do I need home insurance?
Your home is one of the cosiest places where your heart lies, your memories create and, you and your family feel safe. While your apartment or house is your safe haven, it will need protection too.
If your apartment or house is damaged by an unforeseen event such as fire or water pipe bursts, a home insurance would be your financial shield against repair or replacement cost. Other than covering the building structure, home insurance such as HomeBliss also covers the improvements and additions (e.g. renovations) you made to your apartment or house, your household contents and personal effects.
I already have a HDB Fire insurance. Why should I buy a home insurance like HomeBliss?
The HDB Fire Insurance Scheme was introduced to help relieve flat owners of the financial burden of repair work in the unfortunate event of a fire. The HDB fire insurance covers the cost of reinstating damaged internal structures, fixtures, as well as areas built and provided by HDB. It does not include home contents such as furniture, renovations and personal belongings.1
Buying home insurance such as HomeBliss, improvements and additions to your HDB apartment would be covered along with your furniture and household contents. The other benefits2 you get to enjoy include 24-hour Emergency Home Assistance such as plumbing assistance, replacement of laptops or mobile devices if these are damaged due to an insured peril, your legal liabilities to third parties that may arise due to an insured peril – just to name a few.

2Please refer to HomeBliss policy wordings.
I stayed in a condominium and I thought it has a fire policy in place. Why should I buy a home insurance like HomeBliss?
If you reside in a condominium or an apartment registered as a Management Corporation Strata Title (MCST) property, it is the legal responsibility of your Management Committee (MC) to insure the entire property for fire damage. If the property is damaged, the MC will make a claim on the insurance policy and use the claim amount to reinstate the property.
The MCST fire insurance policy may not cover the homeowners’ improvements and/or renovations made to their individual properties. Homeowners are encouraged to check the coverage of their MCST’s fire insurance policy and arrange for additional or separate fire insurance to cover improvements and/or renovations made.1
Buying home insurance such as HomeBliss, improvements and additions to your apartment would be covered along with your furniture and household contents. The other benefits2 you get to enjoy include 24-hour Emergency Home Assistance such as plumbing assistance, replacement of laptops or mobile devices if these are damaged due to an insured peril, your legal liabilities to third parties that may arise due to an insured peril – just to name a few.

2Please refer to HomeBliss policy wordings.
If a water pipe located in the corridor outside my apartment bursts, causing flooding inside my apartment which damages my flooring and furniture. Would I be covered under HomeBliss?
The loss and damage illustrated in this scenario will be covered by HomeBliss Enhanced Plan under the loss and damage caused by Insured Perils and accidental means clause.
Do note that HomeBliss Standard Plan only covers loss and damage caused by Insured Perils. Hence this plan will not cover for loss and damage caused by bursting of water pipes or tanks that are located outside your home.
