WILKES-BARRE, Pa., Nov. 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Berkshire Hathaway GUARD Insurance Companies recently announced it added Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Nevada, and Oregon to the list of states where the insurer offers its Homeowners product.
"As we continue to expand our portfolio, our goal is to be the preferred insurance carrier our agents turn to for their insureds," said Sy Foguel, Berkshire Hathaway GUARD CEO. "We supply our network of independent agents with quality products that enable them to grow as we do. With these additions, we now offer our Personal Lines products in 20 states with plans for further expansion in the months ahead."
Chief Insurance Officer Lyle Hitt explains that "We are very pleased with the caliber of submissions we've already experienced in our previous states, and we fully expect to see that trend continue. Our success can be attributed to Berkshire Hathaway GUARD providing a quality, easily understood product along with a high level of service to both agents and policyholders."
GUARD's product targets dwellings valued over $75,000 and includes one- to four-family residences, renters, and condo units (both owner-occupied and those held for rental).
