Dwelling Fire Insurance

Protect the properties you don’t live in.

If you own a rental, seasonal, or vacant property, you need dwelling fire insurance—not homeowners insurance. At Pennsylvania Insurance Specialists, we help property owners get the right coverage to protect structures from damage, liability, and loss—even when no one’s living there.


Smart Coverage for Non-Owner-Occupied Homes

Dwelling fire insurance typically covers the structure itself—things like walls, roof, and attached features—against risks like fire, vandalism, wind, and more. It can also include liability coverage and loss of rental income. We’ll help you customize protection for the way your property is used.
