Insurance on Flip property

[Nick Ye]

Do you guys buy insurance on flip properties? My insurance company Allstate won't insure vacant properties and the agent got a quote from another company that runs $1400 for 6 months. That seems awful high to me but since it is the first flip job I'm doing I'd like to get some advices from you pros what I should do next. Should I eat that high premium or forget it and take the chance? Overall the property is in a very safe community so I don't worry about theft as much. I mainly want to cover any personal liability in case the contract got hurt on jobsite or something happen to the neighbors during the construction. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
