Underwriting Notes and Minimum Premiums:

Novatae Risk Group underwrites through a mix of admitted and non-admitted capacity, including A–XV rated carriers. The program accommodates complex exposures and prior losses, but thorough submissions speed placement: include a completed SOV (Acord 139), current loss runs, photos when available, and details on protective systems and occupancy. Minimum premium expectations apply; the program typically requires at least $500 premium per policy.

Territories and Availability:

This program is available in most states and specifically written in: AL, AZ, AR, CA, CO, CT, FL, GA, IL, KY, LA, MS, NJ, NC, PA, SC, TX and VA. Placement can be done admitted or non-admitted depending on the risk and carrier appetite.

Why Work With Novatae Risk Group:

As a wholesale broker, Novatae Risk Group specializes in property placements that need flexibility and market access. Use this program when you need:

  • Wind options with low or no deductibles and buy-back programs;
  • DIC capacity and standalone earthquake or flood limits beyond standard market appetite;
  • Solutions for older buildings, non-sprinklered assets, or accounts with prior losses or lapses;
  • Access to admitted paper where available and non-admitted capacity for higher limits or specialized terms.

Example scenarios: You might have a downtown apartment owner with an older, non-sprinklered building and prior water claims who needs broader perils and tailored deductibles; or a condominium association seeking DIC coverage and high flood limits in a challenging zone. These are the types of accounts this program is structured to place.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of accounts are a good fit for this program?

Accounts with challenging characteristics — older structures, non-sprinklered buildings, prior losses, vacant properties, or high brush exposure — and commercial or personal-line properties such as condos, apartments, hotels, retail and restaurants.

Can I place flood or earthquake-only coverage?

Yes. The program offers stand-alone flood and earthquake options and DIC solutions; flood limits are available up to the program maximums (flood limits may vary by zone and underwriting).

Is this available admitted or non-admitted?

Novatae Risk Group places business using both admitted and non-admitted carriers, including A–XV rated markets. Placement depends on the risk profile, limits required, and state availability.

What are the submission must-haves to get a quote?

Provide a completed Statement of Values (Acord 139), current loss runs, occupancy and protection details, and any photos or construction information. Complete submissions accelerate underwriting and binding.

What is the minimum premium?

The program typically requires a minimum premium (commonly around $500), but final minimums depend on the carrier and the state of placement.
