Get a homeowners insurance quote
Start a home insurance quote in about two minutes. Chett Phal's team follows up personally — by phone, text or email, whichever you choose — and walks you through coverage options side by side before you decide anything.
What you need for an accurate home insurance quote
Short answer: The address, year built, square footage, roof age, and the year of any major updates are enough to start. Your current declarations page makes it faster.
- Property address and whether you're buying, refinancing or switching
- Year built, square footage, number of stories, construction type
- Roof age and material; updates to plumbing, electrical and heating
- Safety features: monitored alarm, deadbolts, sprinklers, water-leak sensors
- Claims in the last five years
- Your current policy's declarations page, if you have one — it lets us compare like for like
What happens after you request a quote
Short answer: You get an immediate confirmation, a person from Chett's team reaches out, and you receive options with coverages explained — usually within the same business day.
- 1Confirmation — you'll see it on screen right away.
- 2A real person follows up at the time you choose: now, morning, afternoon or evening.
- 3Options, explained — dwelling, belongings, liability and deductibles side by side, with flood and earthquake addressed rather than ignored.
- 4You decide. No pressure, and no obligation.

How to compare home insurance quotes fairly
Short answer: Compare the dwelling limit, replacement-cost terms, deductible, liability limit and endorsements — two quotes with different limits aren't comparable on price.
| Check | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Dwelling limit | Too low and you can't rebuild; the price looks better than it is |
| Replacement cost vs. actual cash value | ACV on roofs or belongings can cut a payout dramatically |
| Deductible | A $2,500 deductible will always quote lower than $1,000 |
| Liability limit | $300,000 vs. $500,000 changes the price and your protection |
| Water backup, earthquake, scheduled jewelry | Often missing from the cheapest quote |
Frequently asked questions
How long does a home insurance quote take?
About two minutes online to request it, then a short conversation. If you have your current declarations page, it goes faster.
Will getting a quote affect my credit?
Insurers in Washington may use credit-based insurance information in some circumstances; a quote is not a loan application. Ask us how it applies to your quote.
Can I get a quote before I've found a house?
Yes — a ballpark helps you budget. We'll firm it up once you have an address and inspection details.
