Does anyone know how you go about buying an insurance indemnity against chancel repair liability? Which insurers offer this type of cover? Cheers

Your solicitor should be able to obtain the indemnity for you, but if not you could try ChancelCheck - they carry out the searches and also arrange insurance.

my solicitor organised this. One thing to watch out for - the basic policy applies only to you and your current lender (if you have a mortgage) so if you move then the new owner would have to repurchase and if you move mortgage lender then you would need a new policy too. You can 'upgrade' to a policy that covers the building. All a bit of a racket as my mum would say!

Thanks guys - helpful and yes - bit of a racket!
