June 21, 2004

Maine Superintendent of Insurance Alessandro A. Iuppa has compiled an online list of 39 property and casualty insurance companies that have indicated a willingness to consider insuring certain types of risks in the homeowner market. Examples of the types of risks included are: coastal and island properties, log homes, mobile homes, day cares, homes older than 75 years, homes with property losses filed by a prior owner, or prior property losses under the current owner where the cause of the loss has been corrected. Many of these risks were identified in a recent bureau report on market conditions.
