Self Build Insurance for New Homes
If you are building your own home, you will need a Structural Warranty in place, more commonly known as a “Self-Build Warranty” or a to ensure you are fully covered and able to access funds from a mortgage lender. Furthermore, if you wish to sell a home that you have built yourself, there will need to be a Self-Build Warranty in place to satisfy the future buyer’s mortgage lender. We make buying a Self-Build Warranty very easy.
We would also recommend buying Site Insurance cover while your build is progressing.
Example:
Mr & Mrs Williams have bought a building plot and intend to build a new family home for their own occupation. They will require a “Self Build Warranty” to satisfy their mortgage lender, which will provide them with peace of mind, and if they decide to sell in the future, the new purchaser will expect the balance of a 10-Year Structural Warranty to be in place.
