Turned Down Because of Brush Hazard or Fire Risk? Don't Give Up Yet.
If your carrier non-renewed you, or a new policy was declined because your home sits in a fire zone or near heavy brush, you're not alone — and you're not out of options.
Carriers pulled back hard from wildfire-exposed parts of California. But the market is shifting. Some carriers are writing again in areas they'd abandoned, and there are paths to coverage most agencies never bother to look for.
That's the work we do. Where others say no, we go looking for a yes.
What Your Homeowners Policy Actually Covers
Your home is likely the biggest investment you'll ever make.
A homeowners policy protects it — but only if it's built right.
Most people never read their policy until they need it. That's when they find out about the coverage they didn't have.
We'd rather have that conversation now, while there's still time to fix it.
A complete homeowners policy generally includes:
» Dwelling — rebuilds your home's structure after a covered loss
» Other Structures — detached garages, fences, sheds
» Personal Property — your belongings, inside and outside the home
» Liability — protects you if someone is injured on your property
» Loss of Use — pays for temporary housing while your home is repaired
» Medical Payments — covers minor injuries to guests, regardless of fault
We'll walk through your limits, your deductibles, and the endorsements worth adding — like extended replacement cost, which raises your rebuild limit when construction prices spike.

• We'll tell you if you're underinsured. We'll tell you which endorsement is worth the money and which isn't. Then you decide.
Frequently Asked Questions
My insurance company non-renewed me because of fire risk. What now?
What does "brush hazard" mean, and why does it affect my rate?
What is a fire zone, and how do I know if I'm in one?
Can I still get homeowners insurance if I'm in a very high fire zone?
Will clearing brush or hardening my home lower my premium?
It can, and it can also make you eligible where you weren't before. Carriers and the FAIR Plan offer wildfire mitigation discounts for things like a Class-A fire-rated roof, ember-resistant vents, non-combustible materials within five feet of the house, and compliance with California's defensible space requirements. These discounts aren't automatic — the work has to be documented. Tell us what you've done and we'll make sure it's reflected in your policy.
