Florida and California commercial property: where the E&S market is in 2026
Standard commercial property carriers have largely exited Florida and California. Here's what the E&S market looks like for commercial buyers in 2026.
Property managers, HOAs and owners across multifamily, retail and commercial portfolios.
General liability covers third-party bodily injury at the property — including slip-and-fall, the most common loss in multifamily and commercial real estate. The right limit and additional-insured posture for ownership entities is where most policies fall short.
D&O for community associations and management companies pays defence costs and any award against the board personally. Standard package policies almost never include it at meaningful limits — we write it on its own.
EPLI covers wage, harassment, discrimination and wrongful termination claims brought by employees and, with the right wording, third parties — which matters for residential staff who deal with the public daily.
Wire-fraud and social-engineering losses are now the single largest cyber claim in real estate. A standard crime policy almost always sub-limits or excludes it. We bind cyber and crime explicitly for funds-transfer fraud — at closing, on rent, and on vendor payments — sized to the dollars actually moving through your operation.
The areas that matter most for your kind of business — what they do, and the losses they're built to absorb.
Building, common-area contents and loss of rents, plus GL for slip-and-fall, water damage and other third-party claims at the property.

We read the lender insurance exhibit and the JV agreement and bind to the exact additional-insured, loss-payee and waiver language required.
Single programmes across multiple properties and entities — one renewal, one certificate workflow, one schedule of values that stays accurate.
A few details about what you do, your size and any contract or licensing requirements you're working against.
We compare carriers that price your kind of business well, and bring back real options side by side.
