Frequently asked questions about home insurance
If you have a mortgage, it will be a condition of your mortgage that you have Buildings insurance. Buildings and Contents insurance can be purchased together or separately, with Contents insurance optional for homeowners.
We can help you to decide the best way to protect your home and future, according to your budget and individual requirements.
Buildings insurance needs to be in place from the date contracts are exchanged, as that’s when the property becomes your legal responsibility. Your mortgage broker can help you to find the best deals and get it ready to go for when you exchange on your new home.
Not at all. Some mortgage lenders do include Buildings insurance as part of the mortgage package. But not all do! Much like your mortgage offer or car insurance, you can always shop around a little for the best price. Your mortgage broker can help you to find the best price available to you according to your requirements.
