New overseas home insurance launched

If you have ever thought about buying a holiday home in the sun, taking cheap holidays abroad every year and enjoying everything that goes with it, you may have been put off in the past by the legal complications involved in finding insurance in a different country.

You will therefore be pleased to know that Confused.com has recently launched a new service offering to take all the hassle out of getting insurance for your home away from home.

The new service, which is being arranged through Hiscox insurance, aims to save the customer all of the usual hassle that goes with insuring a property. People are often left confused and daunted by foreign legal systems, which often operate very differently to our own. Numerous rules are changed slightly, sometimes quite drastically, and getting a handle on them can be a nightmare.

The new service aims to cut out all of these issues and more by presenting an insurance package in exactly the same way as one from the UK would be purchased. Everything comes in English, the laws are all clear to understand and there are no foreign insurance brokers to deal with.

Carlton Hood, chief executive officer of Confused.com, said that people can now get home insurance “without the worry of language barriers or alien property laws”.

As the only service of its kind, it is expected to be very popular with UK property buyers and could lead the way for a whole host of such services springing up in the future.
