Local Santa Barbara, California insurance coverage that fits your family & business needs, with a team that knows your name.
Home, wildfire, and high-value home insurance in Santa Barbara, California
Santa Barbara sits between the Santa Ynez Mountains and the Pacific, with Spanish-style architecture rebuilt after the 1925 earthquake destroyed much of downtown. Its foothill neighborhoods, Montecito, and the coast are some of the most valuable real estate in the state.
Wildfire and debris flow risk
The 2017 Thomas Fire burned the hills above the city, and in January 2018 rain on the burn scar sent deadly debris flows through Montecito. Earlier fires, such as the 2008 Tea Fire and 2009 Jesusita Fire, destroyed hundreds of homes. Carriers look closely at brush clearance and roof type, and we help homeowners compare private options and the FAIR Plan.
High-value homes and earthquake coverage
We write high-value home coverage for larger homes and estates, and homeowners and condo policies across the area. Earthquake and flood insurance are separate from a standard home policy, and both matter here.
Autos, umbrella, and businesses
We add auto and umbrella coverage for families, and we insure restaurants, hospitality, and other local businesses along State Street and beyond.
