The London Borough of Harrow invites tenders for the provision of buildings insurance for residential leasehold properties in where the Local Authority has sold a leasehold or shared ownership interest. The current contract expires on 31st March 2025.
The Council currently effects cover for 1,155 Right to Buy leasehold properties, however it is anticipated that this figure could increase by up to 2% by the commencement date of the contract.
