Carrier appetite summary

Verified current official producer guidance shows Swyfft actively publishing home underwriting materials through its Agent Resource Center, with home availability shown in admitted and E&S formats depending on state. For current home underwriting/appetite, the most specific verified underwriting guide found is the QBE E&S Homeowners Quick Reference Guide dated 3/18/2026, available in FL, TX, NC, SC, and NJ. Preferred fit appears to be standard owner-occupied to small non-owner/seasonal rental-type dwellings that meet condition and systems standards, with signed applications required and property inspections built into the process. Exterior inspections are performed on every insured property; interior inspections are required for risks 10+ years old and/or Coverage A of $750K or greater, with insured contact expected within 24-48 hours to schedule. Restricted/declined or ineligible classes include applicants with arson/fraud convictions, bankruptcy/foreclosure/repossession history, risks in foreclosure, lapse over 60 days, prior UW cancellation/nonrenewal (except exposure management/non-pay), prior liability or fire loss, any open claims, any liability claim, and water/theft/mysterious disappearance claims over $10K. Occupancy/property classes declined include more than 3-family dwellings, student rentals, daycare or assisted living exposures unless liability is excluded, commercial exposure, risks for sale over a 12-month period, farms/ranches or over 10 acres, barrier-island risks, homes in trust or LLC ownership, modular homes, mobile homes, COC/structural renovation risks, and high-profile occupations. Construction/system declines include asbestos or Chinese drywall, lead paint, EIFS, homes built 1979 or earlier, wood construction within 20 miles of the coast in FL, roofs over age thresholds (metal/clay/concrete tile over 40 years; others over 25 years), poor roof condition or unrepaired damage, spray-foam-treated roofs, wood shake roofs, solar roofs/Tesla roofs or Tesla batteries/parts, over-25%-solar-panel roofs, under-100-amp service, Federal Pacific/Stab-Lok, Zinsco, Challenger, or B&C Kearney panels, cloth/aluminum/knob-and-tube wiring, fuses, cast iron/galvanized/lead/polybutylene plumbing except wastewater-only situations, and wood stoves as primary heat. Producer notes include a 3% credit-card fee on new business and renewals except monthly pay, 25% minimum earned premium increasing to 50% if in force during wind season, and use of Swyfft underwriting/customer support contacts for referrals. Additional official Swyfft high-value home guidance dated 2/13/2026 indicates Swyfft also targets higher-value homes through a Lloyd’s/Hiscox-backed program with occupancy options including primary, secondary, seasonal, tenanted, vacant, short-term rental, and course-of-construction; notable submission/underwriting requirements there include COC questionnaire, short-term rental questionnaire, vacancy reason/length details, contractor CGL requirements for COC, and special coastal enclosure rules within 10 miles of the coast where wind coverage applies.
