mortgage insurance prices are set by the providers who do the work, not by a regulator or a single market rate. Their costs, capacity and risk assessment decide the figure you see.
How to compare quotes for mortgage insurance
Cheapest is not the same as best value for mortgage insurance. A slightly higher quote with a complete scope and no open-ended extras is often safer than the lowest figure with caveats.

For mortgage insurance, same-day and after-hours call-outs sit at the top of the range. A standard appointment booked in advance gives you the best chance of the typical figure.
