Receiving a wildfire insurance non-renewal notice is alarming — but it does not mean you are uninsurable. Oregon carriers are required to give 45 days notice before non-renewal, giving you time to find alternative coverage. The key is to act immediately.
Gerald Ross Agency specializes in placing non-renewed Oregon homeowners with specialty admitted carriers, surplus lines markets, and the Oregon FAIR Plan. We know which carriers are actively writing in high-risk WUI zones and can often find coverage that standard agents cannot access.

Coverage & Key Factors
Understanding what affects your wildfire insurance in Oregon
Specialty Admitted Carriers
We work with admitted carriers who specialize in high-risk properties and actively write policies in Oregon WUI zones where standard carriers have withdrawn.
Surplus Lines Markets
When admitted carriers decline, surplus lines markets provide coverage for properties that don't qualify for standard market insurance. We have access to leading surplus lines carriers.
Oregon FAIR Plan
The state-mandated insurer of last resort provides basic fire coverage for properties that cannot obtain coverage in the voluntary market. We guide you through the application process.
Layered Coverage
We can layer multiple policies to build comprehensive coverage — combining FAIR Plan fire coverage with a Difference in Conditions (DIC) policy for additional perils.
Home Hardening Guidance
We help you identify and document home hardening improvements that can improve your insurability and open access to carriers that would otherwise decline your application.
Wildfire Prepared Certification
We guide you through Oregon's Wildfire Prepared Home certification process — third-party documentation that some specialty carriers recognize as a qualifying factor.
How Gerald Ross Agency Helps
Act Within 45 Days
Oregon law requires 45 days notice before non-renewal. Contact Gerald Ross Agency as soon as you receive a non-renewal notice — we can often find replacement coverage before your policy expires.
Shop 50+ Carriers
As an independent agency, we shop admitted carriers, surplus lines markets, and specialty wildfire programs to find the best available coverage for your specific property.
Home Hardening Assessment
We assess your current home hardening status and identify improvements that could improve your insurability with specific carriers — helping you prioritize the highest-impact changes.
Oregon FAIR Plan as Bridge
If immediate replacement coverage is not available, we can help you apply for the Oregon FAIR Plan as a bridge while you complete home hardening improvements to qualify for standard market coverage.
