Cost of E & O insurance

Allen:

I posted my clarification because your statement was a blanket statement and future readers would be confused/concerned, etc.

so I'll say it also:

Anyone who has the homeowner as the client should be and IS responsible for their work product.
If your contract is with the homeowner then be prepared to stand by your work.

I had a telephone conversation with the agent for AIBD's liability insurance program about a month ago. I understood her to say the insurance was available to all AIBD members. If anyone is interested, you can get the agent's contact information from the following website:

You are correct.

I talked to Jean Marie and she is sending the application for E&O
with quotes etc.

an example would be $1M with $2,500 deductible for approx $5K/year.

This is available to AIBD members.

Regarding E & O Insurance-

Does anyone know if the insurance is available to "General Members" as well as "Professional Members". I for one do not have the five years of full time experience to apply as a "Professional Member.
Thanks
