Receiving a non-renewal notice after a wildfire claim is a stressful and frightening experience. Many Oregon homeowners who have filed wildfire claims find it difficult to obtain replacement coverage — as carriers have exited the high-risk wildfire market and remaining carriers are cautious about properties with prior wildfire claims.
Gerald Ross Agency helps Oregon homeowners find replacement coverage after wildfire claims and non-renewals. We work with specialty carriers and surplus lines insurers that cover properties with prior wildfire claims — and we always try to find the best available coverage before recommending the Oregon FAIR Plan.

How Gerald Ross Agency Helps Oregon Homeowners
Why Carriers Non-Renew After Wildfire Claims
Insurance carriers use claims history as a key rating factor. A wildfire claim signals elevated risk to carriers — especially in areas where wildfire risk is already high. Many carriers have non-renewed policies in high-risk wildfire areas of Oregon, regardless of individual claims history.
Your Rights When Non-Renewed
Oregon law requires carriers to provide at least 30 days notice before non-renewing a homeowners policy. You have the right to a written explanation for the non-renewal. Contact Gerald Ross Agency immediately when you receive a non-renewal notice — do not wait until your policy expires.
Specialty Market Options
Gerald Ross Agency works with specialty carriers and surplus lines insurers that cover properties with prior wildfire claims. We exhaust all specialty market options before recommending the Oregon FAIR Plan.
Fire Mitigation to Improve Insurability
Implementing fire mitigation measures after a wildfire claim can help you qualify for standard or specialty market coverage. Gerald Ross Agency can advise you on which mitigation steps will have the most impact for insurance purposes.
