Timber framed properties may require different policy
A retired insurance underwriter and financial risk manager is concerned some people in the Isle of Man may unwittingly have the wrong sort of policies for their properties.
Malcolm Lambert says homeowners may either not be aware their house is timber framed or, if they are, may not realise such houses are classed as 'non-standard construction'.
These require a policy which recognises this, as insurance companies invariably charge more for them.
Mr Lambert says getting it wrong could have repercussions:
Bus drivers to hold off taking industrial action while talks continue
Regulation of Health and Social Care Bill pushed back to 2027
Manx patients will be contacted if appointments are impacted by UK strikes
Patient taken to hospital after medical emergency on board Manxman
