House Insurance

Hi
I've searched the forums & whilst the answer may be there, I couldn't find it!
I'm looking for advice & prices of house insurance (building & contents?) in HH.
Our house is finished & we've just had burglar bars fitted & most of the furniture is in.
I'm back out in a couple of weeks time to put the blinds up etc & would like to secure our investment with insurance.
If anyone could point me in the right direction on this it would be much appreciated

I've also been advised by a Thai friend to get my 'Tabian Baan' or house book. Not too sure what this is, does anyone else have one?!

I think the Observer Group offers insurance through Aviva. Give them a try.

Some of the banks offers house insurance as well.
At least I bought it in the Bank of Ayudhya.

Thanks for the information guys.
Norseman, if you could PM the price it would be much appreciated as I also have an account there. Was that building & contents?

We have used the people at the Observor to arrange our insurance with Aviva for the last few years. The wording of the policy is not too bad. The service has been good also.

Has this service included making any claims?

If so how was the process?

In general what kind of annual cost are we looking at?

I can only speak for myself, but appx. 1.200.-Bt yearly.
Depends on the value of your house and belongings. (Furniture etc.).
