Real Estate Insurance Coverage

We design Real Estate Insurance policies that go beyond “basic” to “fully protected,” safeguarding your practice, your transactions, and your career.

What is Covered
Professional Liability (E&O): Covers claims of negligence, misrepresentation, failure to disclose, and breach of duty in real estate transactions.
General Liability: Protects against bodily injury claims during open houses, property showings, and office visits.
Cyber Liability: Covers data breach expenses if client financial information or transaction details are compromised.
Commercial Property: Protects your office space, equipment, and business personal property against fire, theft, and damage.
Commercial Auto: Covers vehicles used to transport clients to showings or conduct property inspections.
What is NOT Covered (Exclusions)
Known Defects: Intentionally concealing known property defects is excluded—and likely illegal.
Investment Properties: Your personal real estate investments need separate investor coverage.
Development Projects: Construction and development require specialized builder’s risk and developer coverage.

The “Dream” Difference: Basic vs. Comprehensive

Most direct quotes only cover the basics in the left column. We shop multiple carriers to secure the critical add-ons in the right column that actually protect your real estate practice.

Feature Basic Real Estate Policy The “Dream” Protection Plan
E&O Limits State Minimum Only High ($1M+)
Cyber Liability Not Included Wire Fraud & Data Breach
Fair Housing Defense Limited or Excluded Full Defense Coverage
Lockbox/Key Coverage Not Covered Included (Theft protection)

 

 

Real Estate Insurance Cost

“How much does real estate insurance cost?” Premiums depend on transaction volume, specialization, team size, and claims history.

  • Premium Estimates: Individual agent E&O coverage typically starts at $300 – $700 annually. Brokerage policies covering multiple agents range from $2,000 – $10,000+ depending on team size and transaction volume.
  • Cost Factors: Years of experience, transaction volume, average sales price, property type (residential vs. commercial), team size, and claims history all impact your premium.

The “Independent Difference”: Why Dream Assurance?

Captive agents have one carrier and one price. “Independent Means Multiple Choices.” We shop 30+ top-rated carriers to find the best rate for your real estate practice, re-shopping for you at renewal if rates spike.

  • Bundling Power: We maximize discounts by bundling E&O, General Liability, Commercial Auto, and Cyber coverage into comprehensive real estate protection packages.
  • Claims Advocacy: We don’t work for the insurance company; we work for you. Our team guides you through E&O claims to protect your license and reputation.

Mr. Andre was a massive help beginning to end! He helped us get a great deal on our insurance, and explained everything thoroughly. It isn’t every day you get an insurance agent that you feel actually know what’s they’re talking about AND has your best interest in mind, but he definitely cares about his clients! Thanks Andre, and thanks Dream Assurance!

 

 

Frequently Asked Questions

Is E&O insurance required for real estate agents?
It depends on your state. Many states require E&O insurance as a condition of licensure. Even where not mandatory, most brokerages require their agents to carry it. Given that the average real estate E&O claim exceeds $25,000, it’s essential protection regardless of legal requirements.
Brokerage policies often provide some coverage, but they may have high deductibles, limited individual limits, or exclude certain claims. Many agents carry their own “tail” coverage or supplemental E&O. Review your brokerage policy carefully and consider individual coverage for gaps.
Wire fraud is the #1 cybercrime targeting real estate transactions. Criminals hack email accounts and redirect closing funds. Wire fraud coverage, typically part of Cyber Liability, covers losses when you or your client are victimized. Given that average wire fraud losses exceed $150,000, this is critical protection.
Yes. Your agent E&O policy covers your professional practice—not properties you own personally. Rental properties need landlord insurance (dwelling fire + liability), and you should consider umbrella coverage for additional protection. See our real estate investor insurance for dedicated coverage.
You’ll need separate policies for each role. E&O covers your agent transactions, while investor/landlord insurance covers properties you own. We can bundle both through our carrier network, often with multi-policy discounts. The key is ensuring no coverage gaps between your professional and investment activities.
