Steadily and HomeVestors® Launch Exclusive Self-Serve Insurance Program for Franchisees

AUSTIN, TX — August 7, 2026 — Steadily Insurance Agency, Inc. ("Steadily"), a leading digital landlord insurance provider, today announced a partnership with HomeVestors of America, Inc. ("HomeVestors®"), the largest professional home-buying franchise in the country. As an official HomeVestors partner, Steadily now gives HomeVestors franchisees exclusive access to a self-serve insurance program built for their portfolios of renovation and rental properties.

The program takes aim at a problem every real estate investor knows well. Buying coverage through an agent means waiting on underwriting reviews and paperwork, and those delays land at the worst possible moment: right when a time-sensitive deal needs to close. Through this partnership, franchisees skip that queue. They visit a dedicated portal, quote and bind coverage themselves at pre-set rates with no pre-bind review, and keep deals moving on their own timeline rather than an underwriter's.

"HomeVestors franchisees move fast. Now, there’s insurance designed to match the pace of their business," said Darren Nix, Co-Founder and CEO of Steadily. "We built this program so a franchisee can quote and bind a property in a few minutes and run the whole portfolio from one login, with no agent and no pre-bind review sitting between them and a deal. Coverage follows the property through every stage, from vacant to under renovation to rented, which is exactly how these investors actually work."

Designed exclusively for investment properties, this insurance program provides seamless coverage through every stage of a property's lifecycle. Whether a property is vacant, under renovation, or tenant-occupied, one policy and one certificate keep it protected. 

The program offers several key advantages, including:

• One policy for every stage, covering vacant, renovation, and rented properties under a single certificate
• Dwelling coverage up to $1M per property
• Liability coverage of $1M per occurrence and $2M aggregate
• Builders risk coverage included for properties under renovation
• Water damage coverage for accidental discharge and sewer back-up, up to $10K per occurrence
• Optional loss-of-rent coverage, configurable from 0 to 30% of the dwelling limit
• Deductibles starting at $5,000 for all other perils ($7,500 in Michigan); wind/hail and theft/vandalism deductibles vary by state
• Available in all states except New York

Franchisees handle everything themselves from their Steadily portal at steadily.com/login. From there they can add or remove mortgagees and additional insureds, update mailing address or contact details, download evidence of insurance and full policy packets, and cancel policies when needed, with each property carrying its own certificate of insurance. Changing a named insured, dwelling limit, or effective date works the same self-serve way: cancel the existing policy and start a fresh quote from the portal.

The program is available to HomeVestors franchisees nationwide, excluding New York. Franchisees can get started at hv.steadilyquote.com, and anyone looking to quote an entire portfolio can reach the partnership team at partners@steadily.com.
