Homeowners Insurance

Founders has homeowners coverage for nearly every owner-occupied risk. Of course, we accept homeowners with perfect credit and no claims. But, we also accept homeowners with poor or no credit, space heaters, fuses, prior claims, older homes, and many other risk factors. In fact, unlike most other insurers, our homeowners programs are not credit scored.
