Vacant Building Insurance

Vacant Building Insurance

IPMG offers a flexible and reliable solution for agents and brokers seeking coverage for vacant properties. Whether your client owns a residential property awaiting renovation or a commercial building between tenants, our Vacant Building Insurance program provides the protection needed to manage these unique exposures.

Overview of the Program From IPMG

IPMG (Insurance Program Managers Group) brings specialized markets for hard-to-place risks like vacant buildings. With access to A-rated non-admitted carriers, we help agents secure quality protection for property owners who may not qualify for standard insurance due to vacancy status. We offer responsive service and underwriting expertise for vacant risks in select states.

Ideal Accounts and Appetite

Our program is designed for a wide range of vacant properties, including:
  • Residential dwellings between tenants or undergoing minor renovations
  • Commercial buildings temporarily unoccupied but maintained
  • Properties awaiting sale or redevelopment
We can consider risks with responsible ownership and a clear plan for occupancy or sale. Properties undergoing major structural changes or with severe deferred maintenance may not qualify.

Coverage Highlights and Advantages

We offer comprehensive options, including:
  • Property coverage with Replacement Cost or Actual Cash Value, depending on eligibility
  • Special Form available on qualified risks
  • General Liability coverage to protect against third-party claims
  • Builder’s Risk coverage when applicable
  • Various deductible options to fit your client’s budget
There are no Total Insured Value (TIV) restrictions, allowing flexibility for small to mid-size vacant buildings.

Underwriting Notes and Minimum Premiums

Minimum premiums range from $500 to $750 per line of coverage, depending on the risk profile. We write on non-admitted paper through A-rated carriers, giving us more flexibility in underwriting and pricing. We aim for quick turnaround and competitive terms on qualified submissions.

Territories and Availability

This program is currently available in the following states:
  • Florida (FL)
  • Illinois (IL)
  • Missouri (MO)
  • Indiana (IN)
  • Iowa (IA)
If you operate in one of these states and have a vacant property risk that doesn’t fit the standard market, we encourage you to reach out.
