ShoreOne’s new offering combines traditional homeowners insurance with full flood coverage in a single policy. Access to the combined policy fills the coverage gap affecting 4.8 million National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) policyholders.

It is available through a ShoreOne designed technology platform, developed in partnership with Focus Technologies, that enables agents to issue a complete policy in under one minute. The segmented pricing plan incorporates geospatial features with individual risk characteristics and is backed by reinsurance partners.

ShoreOne inspections validate policyholder information, verify that coverage is adequate, and identify any immediate hazards that a responsible homeowner should address.

The ShoreOne management team is experienced in coastal homeowners insurance and includes Nick Steffey, CEO; Cameron Rhodes, president & COO; Zachary Smith, vice president of Risk Management; and Satvinder Dhami, vice president of Administration.
