Non-Standard Property Insurance · Mortgage Advisor Specialist

Non-standard properties shouldn't cost your clients their mortgage.

I help UK mortgage advisors place specialist property insurance — thatched, listed, unoccupied, flood risk — so non-standard properties don't stall mortgage completions.

20% of non-standard property cases
are declined. Without telling the client where to go.

01 A mortgage advisor receives a case for a non-standard property — thatched roof, listed building, unoccupied, flood risk, subsidence, non-standard construction. The lender requires specialist property insurance as a condition of the mortgage offer.
02 The advisor doesn't know which specialist insurer handles this property type. They search online, call a generalist broker, or tell the client to sort it themselves. The case stalls.
03 Without insurance, the mortgage doesn't complete. The advisor loses commission on a client they have worked with for months. The client loses their property purchase.
04 79% of brokers saw increased non-standard enquiries last year. 88% say providers should redirect these cases to specialists — but most don't. Prestige Underwriting Broker Survey, Feb–Mar 2025, 99 brokers
05 20% of non-standard property cases are declined by standard insurers with no referral to a specialist — one in five clients falls off the desk with nowhere to go. Insurance Times, 2025

"When a lender requires specialist property insurance as a condition of a mortgage offer — thatched, listed, unoccupied, flood risk — how confident are you that your client won’t lose the deal because you couldn’t place it?"

— The question mortgage advisors with non-standard property clients can't always answer

I work inside the niche.
Not around it.

Generic Consultants

No knowledge of non-standard home insurance or which MGA covers which property type
Generic guides that treat thatched, listed, unoccupied, and flood risk as the same problem — they aren't
Don't know what makes a case declinable before it reaches the MGA — so the first call fails and the case stalls
Can't distinguish between MGA appetites — Prestige vs Magenta vs Plum vs Geo for the same property type
Advice is borrowed from the outside — not built from working inside the market

How I Work

I work in non-standard home insurance at Gallagher — I know which MGAs take which risks, from the inside
I built a decision routing tool used live at Gallagher — the Placement Guide is the productised version of that logic
I know what makes a case declinable before you approach an MGA — saving you the failed call
Free Placement Taster delivered within 24 hours — no commitment, no client data needed
I build the guide — you don't manage another consultant relationship

The difference between a tool that understands your world and one that doesn't is the difference between 2 minutes per call and a 3-month implementation project.

One property type.
24 hours. No cost.

01
Which MGA to Approach

Tell me the property type you most commonly get stuck on — thatched, listed, unoccupied, flood risk, or non-standard construction. I'll tell you exactly which MGA handles that risk, based on their published appetite guide. No guesswork. No failed first calls.

One property type · Free · 24 hours
02
What Questions to Ask First

The specific underwriting questions to ask your client before you approach the MGA — so the case doesn't get declined on the first call. Most cases fail because the wrong information was gathered upfront. This prevents that.

Underwriting questions · No client data needed
03
What Documentation to Prepare

The exact documents the MGA needs to see before they'll quote. Getting this right on the first submission is the difference between a deal that completes in days and one that drags for weeks — or doesn't complete at all.

How every engagement works

1
Free Placement Taster first
Before any paid work, I send you the routing for your most common non-standard property type — which MGA to call, what to ask, what to prepare. You see the value before we discuss anything else.

20-minute discovery call
I understand your typical non-standard caseload — which property types you see most, where cases stall, what your clients' lenders typically require. The Placement Guide is built around your specific mix.
3
Placement Guide built and delivered
A fixed fee agreed upfront. The bespoke guide — covering your property types, the right MGAs, the right questions, the right documents — delivered within two weeks of the discovery call.

DA Navigator if needed
For firms with multiple advisors or admin staff handling non-standard cases, the DA Navigator puts the routing logic into a dynamic tool. Added after the Placement Guide is proven.

Founder, P Consulting

Built from the inside.
Not from the outside looking in.

I work in non-standard home insurance at Gallagher, where I spend every day handling complex property cases — unoccupied properties, listed buildings, flood risk, unusual construction, gap in cover decisions. I understand exactly where mortgage completions stall when a lender requires specialist insurance the advisor can't place.

I started P Consulting because the tools available to specialist brokers don't reflect how this market actually works. Everything is either built for large composite insurers or designed by people who have never handled a thatched property or a flood-risk renewal. The gap between what a broker documents after a complex call and what the FCA expects to see — I live that gap every day. That's why I built these systems.

I work with a small number of mortgage advisors at a time. If you're interested in the free Placement Taster, the best first step is a short call.
