Cover when selling your underpinned house

Most mortgage providers require insurance to be in place before completion. Although we can’t transfer the policy to the new owner, we can consider the risk for the new owner, if you share your documentation.

If your underpinned house becomes uninhabitable, alternative accommodation cover helps with the cost of staying somewhere else until the insured damage to buildings has been repaired and you can return home.
