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

  The Dreamliner has an impeccable service history, you are more likely to get mugged on the way to the airport than having any issue with your flight, that's how safe it is! Have a great trip.
