Home Buyers Insurance

Hello
Does anyone know any home buyers insurance that can be claimed on for any under-valuations rather then under 90%?
I seen 2 companies doing this insurance but both say only if valuation by lender is less then 90% of offer price.
I been hit by under valuations on my first try last year and it cost me a lot in legal fees so want to avoid that as flat valuations are still not as they were pre pandemic.
Other option is no move no fee conveyancer but I know they are usually more expensive in long run and may have "other fees" crop up.
Thanks

Why not just ask your chosen solicitor to not do any chargeable work until after you've had your mortgage valuation?

If they're not then you need to find a different solicitor. They do work for you after all, not the other way round.nekr0mantik said:Slithery said:Why not just ask your chosen solicitor to not do any chargeable work until after you've had your mortgage valuation?Would they be ok with that?
