FirstService Residential, North America’s leading property management company, is proud to announce the launch of a new resident insurance solution designed to close the insurance coverage gap, offer more choice, and simplify life for residents and boards at the communities it manages. This new program is delivered through a partnership between its affiliated company FS Insurance Brokers and VIU by HUB, an omnichannel insurance platform developed by HUB International, one of the largest personal lines insurance brokerage firms in the U.S.
Closing the insurance coverage gap
Recent studies show that about two out of every three homes nationwide may be underinsured1. Residents often discover this only when it’s time to file a claim. This can lead to significant extra costs, frustration, and even impact neighbors with property damage or disruptive projects nearby. FirstService Residential’s program aims to address these challenges by making insurance more accessible, transparent, and tailored to the needs of every resident.
Whether it’s time for annual renewal or an opportunity to explore better coverage options, residents can compare quotes from top national insurers for home, auto, and more, all in one place. As a brokerage, VIU by HUB offers neutral advice to tailor insurance to match each resident’s needs. The individual licensed agents of VIU by HUB provide expertise, guidance and quotes in seconds from 50+ top-rated carriers, with coverage across the U.S.
“We are always looking for new ways to add value and simplify life in the communities we serve,” said Andrew Lester, president of FS Insurance Brokers. “Our new resident insurance solution is available whenever your residents need it. There’s no obligation, just convenience when insurance decisions arise.”
“Property managers see firsthand what happens when residents are underinsured. It affects the whole community,” said Bryan Davis, President of VIU by HUB. “FirstService Residential recognized that gap and is taking a proactive approach to help residents protect themselves and their neighbors.”
