How to Get the Fastest Quote Possible

If this is a brand new purchase, you can ignore this. But if you already have existing coverage, contact your current insurance company and request something called a loss run. It will be emailed to you and must be submitted when we quote. We recommend getting it now — whether you go with us or shop elsewhere, any broker will need it. This is one of the biggest things that slows down getting a property quote.

Why a broker beats a single carrier

Every name below sells you one policy — take it or leave it. We work for you, not a carrier, so we put all of them plus more A-rated companies in competition for your hotel and make them fight over your price. Competition is how premiums come down.

What actually drives your hotel rate

Hospitality premiums are easing from their post-2020 peak — but Gulf Coast wind and flood keep Houston hotels priced by exposure, not just room count. These are the levers underwriters price on:

  • Hurricane & named-storm wind — Gulf Coast exposure means windstorm coverage and named-storm deductibles; near-coast properties may need separate wind coverage or a Texas windstorm policy.
  • Flood (Harris County) — flood is excluded from every standard property policy; Harvey and Imelda make separate NFIP or private flood coverage non-negotiable for low-lying sites.
  • Hail — southeast Texas hail claims drive roof pricing and renewal spikes, especially on older flat roofs.
  • Freeze / pipe burst — Winter Storm Uri (2021) exposed uninsulated-pipe risk; freeze-protection upgrades earn credit.
  • Business income & occupancy — RevPAR and occupancy drive your business-income limit; energy-corridor and convention demand swings are underwritten, not assumed.
  • Amenity liability — pools, restaurants, bars (liquor liability) and fitness centers add exposure beyond the building itself.
  • Franchise vs independent — flag requirements set minimum limits and deductibles; independents can often restructure coverage more flexibly.
  • Fire protection — sprinklers, central alarm and monitored systems can cut property premium 15–40%.

A complete Houston hotel program should include replacement-cost property, general liability, liquor liability, business income, equipment breakdown and ordinance & law — with windstorm and flood handled separately where the site is exposed.

Commercial property insurance costs vary widely by building type, location, and risk factors. Our clients typically save $300 to $800 per month by working with us. We shop multiple A-rated carriers, negotiate discounts on construction class, sprinklers, roof age, and occupancy, and help you avoid costly coverage gaps.

We answer when you call — and we fight at renewal

We pick up when you call. We fight for your price at renewal, not just year one. And we tell you the truth even when it costs us the sale. If your current price is fair, we’ll say so. If you’re overpaying, we’ll show you by how much.
