    Answered by the STR Market team

    Q: What do I need to get a quote?

    Mainly the property address and the year of the roof. Quotes typically come back in 1 to 2 hours during business hours.

    Answered by the STR Market team

    Q: Why not just use my homeowners policy?

    Per co-founder Nate Jones, a home or standard dwelling policy without a short-term rental endorsement can mean a property or liability claim is denied.
