Question:

The Professional Liability policy designed for Green Verifiers provides protection against claims made by your clients alleging financial loss due to negligence, errors, or omissions in the performance of your professional services under the NAHB Research Center Green Home Verifiers Program.

Question:
If I provide services as other than an NAHB Research Center Green Home Verifier, can Professional Liability insurance be extended to cover those services?

In some cases, depending upon the nature of those services, coverage may be available. Please contact us to discuss your specific circumstances.

Once we have your completed application, a quote can be turned around in as fast as 2-3 days.

Question:
What limit of Professional Liability insurance do I need?

Answer:
Your policy limit should at least meet the requirements of your NAHB Research Center Green Home Verifiers Agreement. Higher limits are also available at a very reasonable additional premium, and we encourage clients to consider increasing their limits in many cases. Please call our office to discuss your specific situation.

Question:
When completing the Professional Liability application, what do I put for "revenues" when I've just now begun providing NAHB Research Center Green Home Verifier services?
