South Dakota Real Estate Brokerage E&O:
More Extensive Coverage You Control + Pre-Claim Legal Help

Shouldn’t You Control the E&O Protection of Your Brokerage?

A company E&O plan:

  • Protects your brokerage up to $3 million
  • Broadens your coverage with higher limits in critical risk areas
  • Includes expert Legal Help Pre-Claim

Both you and your team enjoy more extensive real estate E&O protection.

  • Compared to the limits of individual licensee policies, your real estate brokerage will likely qualify for 2 to 6 times higher limits — so everyone gets more extensive protection
  • You specify which individual coverages you want in your plan. No more just hoping your licensees buy more than the typical bare-bones coverage (like the minimal state group plan)
  • Your brokerage is still covered if licensees let their policies lapse
  • No tail coverage needed with an Excess policy

Which South Dakota real estate E and O plan should you consider?

As a real estate brokerage, 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 CRES or anyone they choose).

We can help you decide what works best for your brokerage.
