I’m at the point where I’m considering insuring my project. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Ben, there has been a recent ongoing thread titled "if you need insurance.." so search that on the forum and it shows up for your research. Bruce N199CL

I used Falcon when I was Building; it was very inexpensive.

I used Falcon as Jim did.

I believe the rate was 1% of the stated value per year

The quote I just got from my broker is $480/year for an $80k hull value.

Would you share the name and phone number of the broker please?

I got the exact same quote. I let the EAA shop it for me.

Just to clarify - that’s for “builders insurance” (under construction), right?

Yes. I’m not sure if the exact terminology. But yes, insured as long as it’s not moving. Fire, storm, falling tree...etc

Sure. My broker for the last 5 years is listed below. And yes, my insurance covers the project until the plane flies. In my case I have a county owned hangar and since I sold my certified plane I need to carry insurance on a plane in my hangar, so it was time I made it official.
