Insurance for Pasadena homes and businesses
The coverage Pasadena clients ask us about most, from Craftsman homes to rentals and professional firms.
What we see in Pasadena
Pasadena is known for its historic homes and its research and professional community. Since the Eaton Fire, it is also one of the places where home insurance takes the most care.
After the Eaton Fire
The January 2025 Eaton Fire burned through neighboring Altadena and changed how carriers view homes along the San Gabriel foothills. We shop the standard market first and use the FAIR Plan with a wrap policy only when we have to.
Historic and Craftsman homes
Neighborhoods like Bungalow Heaven are full of older homes with details that cost more to rebuild. We set dwelling limits from current rebuild costs and look at extended replacement cost options.
Rentals and ADUs
Many Pasadena owners rent out a unit or an ADU. Rentals need landlord coverage, not a homeowners policy, and an umbrella adds liability protection.
Professional and research firms
Consultants, engineering firms, and tech startups around Pasadena need professional liability and cyber coverage that match their client contracts.

Pasadena insurance questions
Don't see yours? Call (310) 751-5979 and ask.
Do you have an office in Pasadena?
Our office is in El Segundo. Pasadena clients work with us by phone, email, or video, and you are welcome to visit at 841 Apollo St, Suite 470.
Can you insure my home near the Pasadena foothills?
We try. Carrier appetite changes by address. If no standard carrier will write the home, we place a California FAIR Plan policy with a wrap policy and shop again at renewal.
How do I make sure my historic home is fully covered?
Base your dwelling limit on what it would cost to rebuild with similar materials and craftsmanship, not on market value. We can help you estimate it and add extended replacement cost where available.
Does my rental ADU need its own policy?
If you rent it out, your homeowners policy may not cover it fully. We review your policy and add landlord coverage where needed.
