The
Homebuilder Unit at Sutter, McLellan & Gilbreath was
established to better service the needs of the
homebuilding community. With over twenty years
experience working with residential general contractors
SM&G understands that today’s Builder faces many
challenges.
State of the Market
The
building industry is experiencing increased insurance
premium rates and reduced coverage due to a dramatic
increase in construction defect claims and related
litigation costs. Insurance companies are frightened of the issues facing the
homebuilding community and are no longer providing insurance to residential
builders or they are eliminating critical coverage.
Furthermore, Appellate Courts are ruling that faulty
workmanship is not covered by builders’ general
liability policies.
We have an advantage!
Our strong commitment to homebuilders and our dedication to
service our client’s needs has earned us numerous
local and national awards.
Our management team has close relationships with
our carriers and proudly serve on many of their advisory
committees.
The
agency has been closely associated with and members of
the local and state Home Builders Associations for many
years.
We actively participate
in the association by serving on various committees,
participating in builder orientation and also as
insurance consultants on various topics.
