Ask your local agent if they carry Midrox insurance. That is the company that insured my yurt.

Okay thank you. Hopefully I can find someone who does.

What company should I talk to in Alaska for yurt insurance?

[Jafo]

Talk to your local agent, they will be your best bet in finding a company. Midrox is the company that insured mine. Do they insure in Alaska? I have no idea, but your agent does.

Hi Jafo and all you good yurt-dwellers,

I am wondering if you needed the yurt to be permitted, in order to insure your yurt through Midrox?

Has anyone else had luck insuring their yurt (perhaps as something other than a permanent living space), without a permit?

I'm in Lane County, Oregon; we have an excellent lease arrangement with a landowner who doesn't mind what we build as long as its safe, and does not mind if it is permitted or not - as long as we can take it all away with us when we move on - but we would like to be able to protect the investment we are making on a beautiful 30 foot wood walled yurt!

Any of your experiences, thoughts or ideas very welcome

thanks!

Justin

They never asked me anything about permitting and I saw nothing about it in the policy. Most camps in the ADK's are not permitted, so I can't imagine them having that clause in that kind of insurance.

That's great to hear, I'll post and let you know if Midrox (or someone they can give a referral to) will be able to cover us here in Oregon!
Cheers
Justin

Hi yurt dwellers, I'm currently working on getting my land so that I can build my yurt. I happen to also be an insurance agent in Alaska. I have a company that will insure a yurt. One condition, woodstove has be your secondary heat, you must have propane, electric or oil as your primary heat source. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Jocelynsginc.com
Happy yurting!

Hi Jafo, as we begin the build on our Yurt, I was wondering about this...did you use a particular agent in the North Country? Could you pass the name on, you can PM me if thats better. Thanks...
