Go through the local yellow pages and find an independent commercial
insurance broker. You'll get covrage. It will be costly.

Farmers' agents are company employees and are in the business of
representing Farmers' and never the policyholder.

Same goes for All Snake and Snak Farm and Nationwide.

I'm in the process of moving across the country, am selling my present
home. Called my insurance agent today (Farmer's) to tell him of the
move, thinking some adjustment to the home owner's policy would be
required (on the one hand the house is vacant, so presumably more
vulnerable, on the other it's empty, so no content is there to be
harmed) he told me they will not insure an empty house & as far as he
knows no one will. I almost wish I had not mentioned it, but you can
be sure if I hadn't & the damn place had burned down, they wouldn't
have paid anyway if they found out it was vacant. Anyway, anyone have
any advice on insuring an empty house while it is on the market?

TIA
