Building insurance advice

Recommended Posts

Hi


We are attempting to purchase the freehold for our building (two flats in a conversion) so I am trying to obtain insurance quotes in preparation for this.


At present the building as a whole is not insured so we would be starting from scratch. There has been recent repairs due to subsidence and underpinning was also carried out over 20 years ago.


I have seen a few recommendations on here with some members recommending a different broker each time they respond to similar enquiries.


I really want to find out if anyone has actually succeeded in obtaining insurance in a similar situation and any advice or information on costs that might help in my search. In particular did the insurers require a structural survey and if so was this arranged themselves and at what cost.


Any advice would be much appreciated.


Thanks

    • I had no idea about the sourcing of the paving stones - where is the info on this? The extension of the paved area seems completely unjustified- plus, there is a cycle lane right thru the middle so there are bound to be some near misses with pedestrians. 
    • That's really awful. There must be someone further up the management chain who could be made aware of this? 
    • I'm assuming that anybody who has a cat can afford  its food, litter, vets' fees etc. Nobody was saying that two quid is "nothing", but it's cheaper than some brands of cat litter, so was hopefully useful to the OP. Still, hopefully your post made you feel better 👍 🤣 We still don't know why there was a bag of cat litter at the bus stop! Surely it would be rather difficult to take it away unnoticed if the owner of the cat litter was  also at the bus stop? It's not like someone distracted your attention and picked your pocket and you didn't notice till some time later! But what is also confusing me is, if the OP knows where the thief lives, why don't they go and ask for their cat litter back?
    • The market is only there for a few hours on Saturdays! Surely all street markets are "a bit tatty"! That seems a strange reason to close a road permanently to traffic!  There is already at least one seat  in North Cross Road (which seems to be quite well used),  apart from those for customers of The Palmerston,  and several of the shops in the road have greenery outside
