Your rebuild cost, sometimes referred to as building sum insured or reinstatement value, can be most accurately found on a mortgage valuation. If you do not have one to refer to then you can try the Building Cost Information Service (BCIS) commissioned by the association of British Insurers. This free service can be found on https://calculator.bcis.co.uk/.

We do offer insurance policies which allow you to add properties midterm on a pro-rata basis, as long as you let us know you will require this service when purchasing your 1st policy.

Insurance is usually offered from exchange, but you should be guided by your solicitor on the exact date to start your policy.
When you are purchasing a house – whether to live in yourself or as a buy-to-let investment – there is a potential grey area between the exchange of contracts and the completion of the sale. It is during this period that you will have signed a contract committing you to purchase the property, but the house will not technically be yours yet as you wait for other aspects of the sale process to be undertaken, such as the conveyancing.
