Two numbers. Honest math. No forms to fill.
The range is massive — $0.20 to over $1.00 per $100 of coverage. On a $2M building, that's the difference between $4,000 and $20,000+ per year. Here's what drives it.
ⓘ This estimate is based on a best-case scenario — see below for exactly how it's calculated.
Every carrier pulls your loss runs. A clean 5-year record? You'll see rates closer to $0.30–$0.50. Multiple claims — especially water, fire, or liability — push you toward $0.80–$1.00+. Every claim stays on your record for 3–5 years, and carriers price against it.
Your ZIP code matters — a lot. High-crime areas see higher vandalism and theft claims, so carriers price accordingly. Urban cores vs. suburban business parks can mean a 40% rate swing. Even neighboring ZIP codes can produce wildly different quotes.
California wildfire zones. Texas hail corridors. Illinois tornado paths. Missouri flood plains. If your property sits in a CAT-exposed zone, carriers either charge a premium to cover it — or decline to quote entirely. This is the single biggest rate driver in commercial property right now.
This is the part most brokers won't tell you. Every carrier has an "appetite" — a target for how much exposure they want in a given area or building type. A carrier already overexposed in your ZIP code might quote $1.00+ because they don't actually want more risk there. Another carrier trying to break into your market? $0.20. Same building. Same limits. Completely different price — because one wants the business and the other doesn't. Our job is to know which carriers are hungry for your specific risk, and which ones are pricing you out on purpose.
Every carrier is different. Every appetite is different. We shop 20+ A-rated carriers to find the one that actually wants your building — not the one pricing you out because they're already overexposed in your area.
