General Liability and E&O insurance for home inspectors

Liability Insurance by OREP

OREP’s Errors & Omissions (E&O) professional liability product includes an endorsement for General Liability coverage. General Liability can provide protection for your business when someone or something is broken or injured, such as you knocking over and breaking a vase during an inspection or dropping a heavy object from the roof and injuring a home owner.  Coverage is also provided in the event an injury occurs due to an error or omission in your report, for instance: a faulty deck collapses months after the inspection and injures the home owner, or you failed to note the deck needed repair.
