building insurance quotes on listed building

marc3

Previously posted this under house renting,but it probably ought to be on this forum which i have only just discovered :

we are part owners of a listed building where there are 5 apartments.

We are looking to obtain fresh quotes for BUILDING insurance as have'nt done so for 3 years and want to search the market.

-not landlords-but building insurance.

can anyone recommend any particular company who are ultra competitive and efficient on buildings insurance for a LISTED building,with 5 self contained apartments within-approx value of complete building- £800K .

many thanks in anticipation

I don't think the listed status of the building will cause any difficulty getting quotes - most many stream insurers will cover this presuming it's grade 2 listed not above this.

Are you trying to insure the whole building as a block policy with other residents or just your own flat?

What grade of listed building is it? The grade II tend to be acceptable to most insurers, once you get to grade II* and certainly grade I then you are more looking at specialist policies.

Generally with block insurance you are looking at using a local broker (not Swinton) and they will also be able to place business for the more challenging graded statuses
