At Last - Insurance for Turkish property with PLI

Intasure Insurance sounded great to me but after accepting their quote they asked detailed questions about flooding. My house is in an area liable to flooding, as is much of Calis. They then refused to insure me.

Hi Hazel, I spoke with Intasure about this. They have carefully explained that they are not refusing to exclude properties that have suffered from damage through flash flooding/flash storms, but as with UK property insurance, they are not insuring properties in areas of general flooding risk caused by proximity to rivers that have a history of bursting their banks.

It isn't any different in Calis or Colchester. In fact, very few properties in Calis & Fethiye are at risk of flooding.

I have also asked if Intasure would join the forum, so they can answer any members questions themselves, as I don't really know much about property insurance   - and hopefully they will.

I contacted Intasure as a result of reading this thread. They responded very quickly and seemed very competitive for our needs. They seemed to be saying we didn't need to insure until we had our TAPU. Does anyone know if this is correct?

[Scunner]

Probably technically correct but as we are now working to a 'get the keys once you pay' system, rather than wehn you get the tapu, it's your belongings in the property, and you can't be sure that the previous owner or developer has sufficient insurance cover (if any at all) if any disaster strikes.

Hi, this is a question that relates to insurance but also a general question. I am looking for property in Calis at the moment.  I have read somewhere that recently all new builds are built 'earthquake safe'.  Can anyone tell me more about this?  Also, as some of the properties I'm looking at are older how would this stand with insurance?

Thanks, Keri

Puplick liability cover?

A lick from a pup can make a small skin abrasion turn septic. I'm surprised you don't take attacks from vicious animals seriously at your "national insurance company".

[tinkerman]

Whilst I agree with you Keith I have to point out if it were a adult dog we can prosecute and seek compensation, as in this case it is a minor and is too young to prosecute and therefore you cannot be covered for such an event, it is too much of a liability.

No wonder pups of today have no respect.

Bring back National Pup Service, that's what's needed.
