Vacant Property Insurance Referrals

I found a new broker - tried to throw it out to BP first just in case there was some Insurance Broker hanging around the forum that I could give some business.

I've had a hard time finding insurance for my rehabs, but someone just told me about a company called Zurich. Can't vouch for them though, still waiting for my quote.

Misia,
The plus side with Zurich is they own Farmers and Foremost. Somewhere in all of that someone will have the coverage available to buy.

Zurich writes builders risk policies which can be good if you are rehabbing or adding on to a property. There are other companies like Diamond State, Foremost, and American Modern. We write for these companies and some others and would love to help if we can.

Thanks for the link post jawsette! We work as hard as we can to do everything we can for our clients. Most of our clients are professionals and they are repeat customers. We write the really hard stuff and the easy stuff. Give us a try, I think you will like it.

I use Foremost b/c it seems like they're really the only ones who will put up with me. Didn't know Zurich owns them but whatever, I usually get insurances for less than $100 a month with no minimums.

From what your saying i believe that you dont need a vacant insurance policy, because the building is currently undergoing construction. what you'll need is a owners interest liability policy and a builders risk policy.
