Home movers given insurance tips
Those looking to gain a quote on buildings and content insurance
for a prospective new home must ensure they know a number of
intricate details about the property they are moving into, it has
been suggested.
Financial search engine Tescocompare.com said that people will need
to know information about locks and alarms if they are to get an
accurate assessment of how much they will need to pay for this type
of cover.
This was one of many pieces of home-moving advice issued by the
firm, which it claims could save people time, money and
stress.
Anyone in the process of switching properties can also transfer
over their home insurance policies to the future house or flat
until the date of completion, the company stated.
Movers - and there could be an increasing number of them in the
coming months if National Association of Estate Agent predictions
are to be believed - may find this gives them some "breathing
space" while they try to find a new deal.
Debra Williams from Tescocompare.com said: "Moving home is usually
a stressful time, no matter whether you are a homeowner or renter.
But there are many things you can do to take the stress out of
moving and save yourself some money."
