The new policy covers buyers and their lenders against the cost of defending and complying with enforcement action by the local authority, and reduction in market value if use is subsequently prevented and the crossover can no longer be used. The policy can also be combined with lack of planning cover for residential properties where planning consent should also have been obtained for the dropped kerb; for example, where the property is a flat, or on a classified A, B or C road.
Premiums start at £96. More information can be found on our products page under both the ‘Access’ and ‘Planning’ headings, or you can speak to an underwriter directly by calling 01603 617617, or email enquiries@cli.co.uk.
