Other insurance you should consider - Whilst buildings insurance is compulsory under the terms of the mortgage, you are also strongly advised to consider the other types of insurance available to offer you protection according to your needs:

Contents insurance - Covers the contents of your home, like your furniture, household equipment, clothing and personal belongings. If you take buildings insurance through our policy with Equity Direct Broking Limited, contents insurance can be arranged at the same time at competitive rates.

Mortgage Payment Protection insurance - Designed to cover the costs of your mortgage payments if you experience changes to your personal circumstances such as accident, sickness or involuntary redundancy and are unable to pay. We have a special arrangement with reputable specialist insurers to offer you this type of protection. On some of our mortgage products it is offered free for the first six months.

As the Society is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority, we can arrange buildings, contents and mortgage payment protection insurance for you through our arrangements with leading insurers. For further information call 08451 22 00 33*

Life assurance - Designed to pay off your mortgage in full if you die unexpectedly, so the property can pass to your estate without the burden of a loan to be repaid.
