I learned this hint from Rafa Nadales area director of expat insurances for the regions of the Malaga province and the Campo of Gibraltar areas. You can hear this directly from Rafa on a video from our second seminar. You will find this on ‘videos’ under the ‘News and Views’ link.
According to Rafa. Most insurances companies when providing you with a quote for buildings insurance (the clue is in the name of the insurance) They tend to encourage you to take out the premium on the value of your home. This is unnecessary and increases your annual payment considerably. The premium should be calculated on the cost to REBUILD your property only.
