First House Flip - Question about insurance?

[Stephen Page]

Hey guys! 

I have my first house flip under contract. I called my local insurance agent about quoting the property. I explained it was a fix and flip and she provided a standard homeowners policy with what looks like coverage for builders risk/renovation. It was higher than I anticipated. 

My question is, does any have a recommendation for an insurance company or agent who specializes in insuring fix and flips? Or anyone they would recommend to speak to about getting a quote.  

Would also love any feedback on insuring these flips that maybe I’m not thinking of! Thanks in advance!

@Stephen Page - I use NREIG for my fix/flips. Very convenient on-line portal and very good rates. Their phone customer service has been stellar for me, but I've heard from 1 other person who had a bad experience. I did try using a local insurance broker that I met at a REIA meeting. They couldn't come close to NREIG for my fix/flip, but they saved me loads on my car insurance.
