Just $110 for a one-year policy.  Rhode Island Department of Business Regulation (RIDBR) requires only a one-year E&O policy, so why pay more?

And now, you won’t pay extra to cover any activities for which a real estate license is required.

Your CRES Real Estate E&O + ClaimPrevent® includes PRE-CLAIM access to local expert real estate attorneys available 7 days a week – for questions, writing or reviewing letters and addendums, contract review, and more — to help you actually PREVENT claims. It also includes . . .

  • Conformity Endorsement coverage — if you’re a Rhode Island resident, this endorsement amends your Rhode Island policy to conform to E&O requirements of other states where you hold a valid real estate license.
  • 25 Free CRES Building Permit History Reports (a $99.95 value), included with your policy each year, with discounted pricing on additional reports. Save $1000 on your out-of-pocket claims cost when you provide a Permit to the buyer.  A CRES Exclusive
  • Discounts to Office Depot®, Constant Contact® Email, Lenovo® PC Products, UPS® shipping, even Bekins® and Wheaton Van Lines moving discounts you can offer to your clients.
  • PLUS, our Rhode Island E&O has ALWAYS included:  no out-of-pocket costs when a claim has only Defense costs (“First Dollar Defense”), Firm and Franchise Coverage, and Prior Acts coverage for as long as you’ve maintained continuous real estate E&O insurance (with any company).

With CRES, You Get Significantly More Coverage — and More Extras!

CRES is a FAR better protection option than what the competition offers for most licensees in Rhode Island. And we guarantee that a CRES E&O policy will meet or exceed 100% of RIDBR requirements.

You may be eligible even if you have past complaints or claims.

As required by RIDBR, our policies cover all real estate activities requiring a license.  Our online enrollment process is now simpler. Try it out!  (Cover your Appraisal or Transaction Coordinator activities with a separate policy.)
