About
CasaInsure is a small editorial. And stubborn.
CasaInsure is a small editorial team that reads home-insurance policies the way an aunt who used to work at State Farm would — slowly, suspiciously, and with a yellow highlighter. We earn affiliate commissions on certain links, but our recommendations are never for sale.
How we read a policy.
Every review on CasaInsure is grounded in primary research: actual declarations pages, actual endorsements, and conversations with at least one independent agent who writes the carrier's policies in the relevant state. We compare against three competing alternatives, in plain English and — when it matters — in plain Spanish.
- • Reviews are reviewed by an editor before publication. The editor is slightly stern.
- • We update reviews when carriers raise rates, change exclusions, or exit a state — within 30 days.
- • When we're wrong, we publish corrections — clearly labeled.
- • Comments are moderated. Respectful disagreement is welcome; sales pitches are not.
"No one signs a house contract without reading it. Insurance is a contract."
Who writes here.
Lucía Mendoza-Ortiz
Editor-in-Chief
Raised in Hialeah and Houston. Twelve years inside two carriers (Allstate, Hartford) before walking out with a yellow highlighter and a grudge against exclusion language.
Nathan Reyes
Senior Reviewer
Former independent agent in Tucson. Specializes in mobile-home and dwelling-fire policies — the corners of the market nobody covers.
Camila Soto
Claims Reporter
Reads claims-day fine print so you don't have to. Reports out of Miami; speaks fluent Florida-Spanish-with-paperwork.
Beatriz Vela
Editor-at-Large, West Coast
Covers California, CCPA rights, wildfire endorsements, and the tricky ladder of Citizens-style state insurer-of-last-resort programs.
Bilingual where it matters.
Spanish-language readers represent a third of new homeowners in Florida, Texas, California, Arizona, and Nevada — but most home-insurance reviews are English-only and most carriers don't translate their policy documents. We publish in clear English first, and pull Spanish in when the policy phrasing is best understood in the language the contract was actually negotiated in. Where carriers offer truly bilingual policy documents and bilingual claims agents, we say so prominently.
