We are the Flats Experts
Blocks of flats come in all shapes and sizes, from the house converted into 2 flats to a multi-million pound complex. At Midway Insurance we believe that all blocks of flats need specialist covers and we have quality bespoke products suitable for the smallest through to the largest.
We can cover the oldest to the newest buildings and most things in between. Our team will take the time to understand the construction of your clients property and offer you the most appropriate product for them.
It’s not just about selling a policy – it’s making sure that the client has the correct cover.
Our Expertise
Paul our MD, is frequently called upon to participate in events in the Property Industry and writes for the leading publications. He is passionate about ensuring that leaseholders and freeholders are protected and will not sell off the shelf residential property owners policies for blocks of flats. Read More
Demands and Needs
All brokers will issue a demands and needs statement with their quotations, but how many will offer to read the leases to ensure that what they are offering is compliant with the lease? Of the leases we have read, 40% have had the insurance policy in the wrong name, which could prove to be catastrophic in the event of a claim.
Our Policy Wordings
We have unique specially enhanced wordings agreed with each insurer, we do not believe that a standard residential property owners product is suitable for blocks of flats. A standard residential property owners policy usually has an unoccupancy clause which activates when a single flat is unoccupied, the terms are usually impossible to comply with, with perils being deleted.
Our policies do not do this; we simply apply an additional £500 excess. If someone has let their flat out many standard residential property owners policies only pay loss of rent to the policyholder not the individual leaseholders. Read More
Claims
