We’re in the process of buying a house. As we are not using our mortage lender (Alliance & Leicester) as the insurer for the house, our solicitor has told us that we need find buildings insurance and “put it on risk” for when the contracts are exchanged.
What does this mean?
It says that a quote or renewal notice is not sufficient, it must be a policy schedule.
How can I buy insurance before I’ve bought the house?
I ideally want to buy my insurance online too.
