Address not listed for buildings insurance

Hi everyone, I'm due to complete contracts on my new home next week and the solicitor has now asked for a copy of the buildings insurance schedule. However, my new home is a new build and despite the address showing up on Confused.com and the like, when I try to click through to the main insurer page the street numbers don't go as high as mine yet.

Has anyone else had this issue, and if so how did you get around it? Calling them up hasn't helped either so they must be using the same database.

    We had the same issue when buying ours.


    We were advised that there are some insurers who work from the street address and not the complete postal address.


    The only one we could find that would do this was legal and general and we managed to insure our new build with them.

  • We had this, went through a broker who spoke with them directly, think it's Axa we're with.
