In the last few years expanded to offer homeowners & other property insurance through independent insurance agents in other states, including Alabama, Delaware, Georgia, Hawaii, Indiana (starting in 2015), Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire (approved as of Dec. 2015), North Carolina, Pennsylvania (first policy in the Keystone State sold in 2015), South Carolina, Virginia (authorized in the state as of July 2015), West Virginia, and now New Jersey & New York (authorized in these states as of March 2016), with plans to expand to more states in the future.
