Technology-enabled insurer Slide Insurance has expanded into Texas and Rhode Island, following expanded product offerings in Florida, South Carolina and California, advancing the company’s geographic and product diversification.

slide-insurance-logoSlide is entering Texas with an HO3 homeowners insurance product and Rhode Island with a DP3 dwelling insurance product for eligible rental and seasonal properties.

These new offerings broaden coverage options for property owners, provide independent agents with expanded solutions, and extend the company’s reach into two additional states.

Bruce Lucas, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Slide, commented: “Our entries into Texas and Rhode Island are fully aligned with our long-term diversified growth strategy to expand into attractive new markets.

“Texas represents one of the largest homeowners insurance markets in the United States, while Rhode Island establishes a foothold for further expansion across the Northeast. Our underwriting expertise, technology and financial strength position us to grow with discipline while bringing additional choice and capacity to the communities we serve.”

In Texas, Slide’s homeowners offering provides an additional option for eligible homeowners in a market where catastrophe exposure and coverage costs remain important considerations.

In Rhode Island, the company’s dwelling product addresses the needs of landlords and seasonal property owners, adding choice in a market facing increased underwriting selectivity, particularly in coastal communities.

This expansion leverages Slide’s catastrophe underwriting expertise to meet local market needs. By broadening its footprint and products, Slide continues to diversify and support long-term growth.

Independent agents can access these products via Violet, Slide’s quoting and policy management platform.
