House Flipper & Renovation Insurance in Oregon

Coverage for renovation projects, vacant homes, tools, contractors, and the changing risks between purchase and resale.

Insurance for the Project Between Purchase and Resale

A renovation project can change quickly: a vacant home is acquired, contractors arrive, materials are delivered, and the property may later become a rental or resale. House flipper and renovation insurance helps you review those changing exposures instead of relying on a standard homeowners policy that may not fit a vacant or under-construction property.

Gerald Ross Agency helps Oregon and Northern California investors compare options for project property, liability, business equipment, contractor requirements, and the coverage transitions that can occur as a renovation moves toward completion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about this coverage in Oregon.

Does homeowners insurance cover a house flip?
A standard homeowners policy may have occupancy, vacancy, business-use, construction, or renovation limitations. The right answer depends on the property and project, so review it before work begins.
What is builder's risk insurance used for?
Builder's risk is commonly used to address covered work in progress, materials, and property during eligible construction or renovation projects. Terms, causes of loss, and limits vary by policy.
Do renovation contractors need their own insurance?
Contractors generally need their own insurance. Project owners should also review written contracts, certificates of insurance, and any additional-insured requirements with qualified counsel and insurance professionals.
Can coverage change after the renovation?
Yes. A project may need a different coverage approach once it is completed, occupied, rented, or offered for sale.
