Hippo Launches Proactive Home Protection in New York State

Hippo Insurance Services announced today it will offer home insurance products in New York State, providing a smarter coverage option to the Empire state’s 4.5 million homeowners, and marking an important step in Hippo’s geographic expansion. With New York, Hippo products now reach 88.9% of the U.S. population in 38 states.

New Yorkers can easily access Hippo’s proactive protection offerings, including modern home insurance coverage, complimentary smart home devices and Hippo Home Care – personalized guidance, quick fixes and trusted recommendations to help keep homes running smoothly.

“We are changing how consumers think about home insurance and exceeding customer expectations by combining modern coverage with smart home technology and Hippo Home Care to deliver proactive protection for homeowners,” said Rick McCathron, President of Hippo. “Protecting the joy of homeownership in New York means expanding to the nation’s fourth most populous state, further diversifying our geographic portfolio and delivering better outcomes for our customers and our business.”

According to the National Weather Service, New Yorkers experienced more than 150 significant weather events over the last decade. The impact of climate change and new weather patterns calls for a data-driven, proactive insurance partner like Hippo with its intelligent warning systems that allow the company to spring into action after an event, proactively check on impacted customers and guide them through the claims process when necessary.
