How I work

A broker who knows the closing table

As an independent broker, no insurance company owns my book or tells me what to sell. I shop each risk with the admitted carriers, wholesalers and specialty markets I'm appointed with, and I tell you plainly what each option covers and leaves out.

I know what escrow officers and lenders' insurance desks ask for, so the evidence of insurance, mortgagee clause and loss payee are right the first time.

Every quote request gets its application link by email right away and an update at each step. Calls to (877) 711-4545 and texts to (877) 711-4545 are answered around the clock, and the office is open Monday to Friday, 9 to 6.

“I have worked with Sam Alishahi for my property insurance and business insurance needs for several years, and I look forward to our continued professional relationship.”
Pouyan B. · Google review, October 2026

“I’ve worked with Sam on insurance for multiple properties, and what I appreciate most is that he doesn’t take a one size fits all approach. He takes the time to understand the property, the situation, and what you actually need.”
Mohammad M. · Google review, October 2026

“I had a great experience working with Saman on my California FAIR Plan. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made the whole process very easy.”

What I place most

The risks clients bring me

Homes the regular market turned down

Canyon and hillside homes in brush areas, placed with the California FAIR Plan and a difference-in-conditions policy for what the FAIR Plan leaves out, or with specialty carriers when they'll take it. See details

High-value homes, often held in a trust or LLC

Homes insured from the real cost to rebuild, with the ownership, lender and umbrella lined up so a claim doesn't turn into a coverage dispute. See details

Investors and landlords

Rentals, apartment buildings, mixed-use and commercial buildings leased to tenants, including properties on bridge and construction loans. See details

Contractors and small businesses

General liability, workers' comp, bonds and property for contractors, professional firms and property owners' companies. See details

Nationwide

How requests outside California work

Every quote request on this site comes to me, wherever the home, vehicle or business is. I'm licensed in all 50 states and Washington, DC and your request stays with my agency, not passed to another agent.

Your details go where your quote and policy need them: the insurance companies, managing general agents, wholesale brokers and agency networks that quote and place it, the service providers that run this site and its email, text and AI tools, and anyone you ask me to send them to, such as your lender. The privacy policy lists them in more formal language.

Editorial standard

How these pages are written

Every rule, deadline, form number and statute on this site comes from an official or primary source, and each page names its sources at the bottom: state insurance departments and statutes, the DMV, CSLB, FEMA, HUD, FMCSA, carrier filings and the like. If I cannot point to a source, the claim does not go on the page.

I write the pages and re-check them against those sources; the Reviewed date under a page title is the last time its facts were gone over. Nothing here is a quote or a promise of coverage, and no page states prices, because what a policy costs depends on the risk and the market on the day it is quoted.

The phone, text and chat assistant collects the details a quote needs and answers general questions. It does not quote, bind or change coverage; I do, in writing. If you find an error on any page, email sam@alishahiinsurance.com and I will fix it.
