Local Reno, Nevada insurance coverage that fits your family & business needs, with a team that knows your name.
Home, wildfire, and flood insurance in Reno, Nevada
Reno sits in the Truckee Meadows at the base of the Sierra Nevada, about 45 minutes from Lake Tahoe. The University of Nevada, Reno, a growing tech and manufacturing economy, and easy access to the mountains have brought rapid growth.
Wildfire along the Sierra front
Homes in the foothills and along the edges of town face real wildfire risk. The 2011 Caughlin Fire and 2012 Washoe Drive Fire destroyed homes in the Reno area, and the 2024 Davis Fire forced evacuations in Washoe Valley. Carriers look closely at defensible space and roof type. We shop homeowners coverage across carriers and help you get credit for mitigation.
Truckee River flooding and earthquake
The Truckee River flooded downtown Reno in 1997 and again in 2005, and western Nevada is one of the most seismically active areas in the country. A standard home policy does not cover flood or earthquake, so we quote both separately.
Snow, autos, and businesses
Winter driving on I-80 over Donner Pass and I-580 shapes auto insurance needs. We also insure businesses, contractors, and trucking operations tied to the region's growing industrial base.
