However, most mortgage lenders insist a property is insured, and insist on being named on the insurance as an interested party. If they are not, they will soon be enquiring why the property is not insured. If they ARE listed as an interested party, they'll be sent details of the insurance by the insurerer, and will then start asking why the policy is a landlord's policy!
You need insurance for a let property (landlord's insurance) and you need to register the lenders interest with the insurer. So a policy from landlord-insurers-ltd is going to be a bit obvious. Whereas one from allanboswell or directline (who have a business arm) will not be.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

But have you ever known any cases where these insurers have paid out for a major claim without CTL?0 -
