Cover Your Sale with a Completed Housing Warranty
If you intend to sell a property that has been built in the last 10 years you will need a Retrospective Completed Housing Warranty.
The good news is we can help and we arrange plenty of Retrospective Warranties. The reason is lenders will not provide a mortgage without a retrospective warranty, as this provides insurance and peace of mind against any structural issues during the first ten years.
Retrospective Completed Housing Warranties are available, subject to the lender, and we can assist you with the process to ensure you obtain the right policy and most importantly, this will be acceptable to the buyer and lender.
Example:
If you built a block of 15 flats four years ago and now intend to sell, a Structural Warranty will be required by mortgage lenders who are providing finance to each new purchaser. Alternatively if you decide to refinance your existing loan with another mortgage provider, then it is very likely that lender will require a Structural Warranty.
