GeoVera offers earthquake, homeowners, wind, flood, residential landlord and vacant home insurance.
GeoVera Earthquake Insurance
Earthquake insurance covers earthquake damage to your home and personal property. Standard homeowner’s policies do not cover earthquakes. However, indirect damage from an earthquake—such as a fire that caused an earthquake—is generally covered by homeowners insurance.
Your home, belongings, and outside structures (such as fences) may have their own earthquake deductibles if you file an insurance claim. At GeoVera, discounts depend on the type of earthquake coverage and where your home is located.
Earthquake insurance is offered by GeoVera to homeowners in:

Meanwhile, in Oregon, GeoVera’s earthquake coverage limits range from $100,000 to $1.5 million.
