Recent surveys reveal that many prospective home buyers in Florida cite insurance as a major barrier to purchasing a home.

Security First provides a new level of comprehensive protection to new home buyers in Florida, supported by Embark’s expertise in custom insurance solutions and proprietary technology.

The new HO5 policy comes with a broader scope of protection for new home buyers than the standard, with streamlined claims processing. These HO5 policies are distinctive in the Builder channel because they provide “open-perils” coverage for both the home and personal belongings, and coverage for incidents often excluded from traditional policies.

Leveraging Embark’s proprietary technology, insurance quotes are seamlessly integrated into the home-buying and mortgage qualification process. The system preloads builders’ home inventory, community details, and model data enabling accurate, bindable quotes without the need for lengthy applications.

This streamlined approach electronically shares insurance information with builders’ mortgage and title partners, reducing closing delays and making the process simpler.
