XS Markets
Great markets for General Contractors & Artisans

{short description of image}The hard market has hit the GC market! From large rate increases, to issuing non-renewal notices, companies are changing the way we write GC's and artisan contractors. You see the list of exclusions getting longer by the day: employee injury to subs, contractual liability limitation, construction defect exclusions and more. We represent a number of carriers for this particular market, outlined below are brief overviews of each.

Scottsdale - probably the best form on the street! Will write GC's, new or renovation…less than 10 new homes & no past/present condo work. Min premium $10,000. Scottsdale Brokerage also writes commercial GC's, min premium $20,000

Western Heritage - Likes smaller GC's, generally $2,000,000 in sales and less…50% or less in sub cost. Minimum Premium $3,500

Essex Insurance - Will entertain all size and type GC's, condo, apartments, new homes…Minimum Premium $5,000

Evanston - does condo, apartment, and new residential work, commercial, etc… Minimum premiums start at $40,000.
