Which Real Estate E&O Plan Should You Consider?

As a real estate firm, you have two options: 1. Choose an Office policy to protect all of your agents and employees, or 2. Choose an Excess policy and have your agents purchase their own E&O (from us or anyone they choose). We can help you decide what best meets your needs.

Real Estate E&O Office Policy

  • Get as much protection as you need: limits up to $3,000,000
  • Choose your participation level: retention (out-of-pocket claims expense) from $1,000 to $100,000

E&O Excess Policy

  • Sits above the agents’ limits to provide a full $1-3 million in coverage for a claim
  • No additional out-of-pocket claims expense once the agent’s retention has been paid
  • Fixed annual premium
  • Adds coverage for ex-agents and employees
