Albany, NY & the Capital Region
Independent, family-owned coverage that fits your home — not a script. We compare top-rated carriers so Capital Region homeowners get the right protection at a fair price.
From century-old brownstones in Troy to newer builds in Guilderland and Clifton Park, homes in the Albany area have wildly different insurance needs. Older roofs, oil tanks, wood stoves, ice-dam risk, and finished basements all affect what your policy should include — and what it should cost.
We're an independent agency, which means we work for you — not any one insurance company. We'll quote your home with multiple carriers, walk through the differences in plain English, and make sure the policy actually fits how you live.
Dwelling coverage
Rebuild costs for your home's structure at today's material and labor prices.
Personal property
Protection for furniture, electronics, clothing, and belongings — on and off premises.
Liability protection
Coverage if someone is injured on your property or you're held responsible for damage.
Loss of use
Hotel, meals, and living expenses if your home is uninhabitable after a covered loss.
Water backup & sump
Add-on protection Capital Region basements often need — many base policies exclude it.
Jewelry & valuables
Scheduled coverage for engagement rings, watches, art, and heirlooms beyond standard limits.
Our office is in Troy, and we write homeowners policies across the Capital Region.
Most Capital Region homeowners pay between $900 and $1,800 per year, depending on the home's age, rebuild cost, roof condition, distance to a fire hydrant, and claim history. As an independent agency we shop multiple carriers so you're not stuck with a single rate.
Yes. Water backup and sump overflow is almost always excluded from a standard HO-3 policy. It's an inexpensive endorsement and something we recommend for nearly every home in Albany, Troy, and surrounding areas.
No. Flood is a separate policy through the NFIP or a private carrier. If you're near the Hudson, Mohawk, or in a low-lying neighborhood, ask us to run a flood zone check.
Yes — bundling is usually the single biggest discount available. We'll quote both together and show you the combined savings.
