There’s a lot to love about the great state of Virginia. From its beautiful beaches to its soaring mountain ranges, the Commonwealth of Virginia has no shortage of natural splendor. However, when you also consider Virginia’s rich history, vibrant culture, and impressive educational system, ranked 7th in the country, it’s no wonder more than 8.5 million people have chosen to call this state home.

Not surprisingly, there have been quite a few notable Virginians over the course of its 400-year history. Virginia is nicknamed the “Mother of Presidents,” more U.S. presidents have been born in Virginia than any other state, including household names like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison. More recently, Virginia has also produced luminaries like Ella Fitzgerald, Pharrell Williams, Arthur Ashe, and Missy Elliott.

It’s an impressive roster, and we’re excited to join such good company. That’s why we’re pleased to announce that Hippo now offers Virginia home insurance, from Big Stone Gap to Virginia Beach. Hippo offers affordable protection for all of Virginia’s 3.5 million homes, including sprawling farmhouses, historic colonials, and picturesque Neoclassical homes. So whether you need to insure your boathouse in Chesapeake or your townhouse in Portsmouth, Hippo has you covered.

With a humid, highly variable climate, Virginia is subject to hurricanes, tornadoes, thunderstorms, and heavy snow—all the more reason to protect those stately, centuries-old homes with smart, modern home insurance. In fact, we offer free smart home monitoring kits with most policies, which helps you both protect your home and lower your costs.

Built on the belief that homeowners deserve better home insurance, Hippo’s platform uses real-time data to keep assessments up to date and our customers fully insured—often at a significant savings. Our customers save an average of 25% on their homeowners’ insurance, with coverage tailored to their lifestyles, priorities, and needs. Getting a quote takes just 60 seconds, with coverage available in under four minutes. You can even compare quotes with other providers to see how Hippo stacks up to the competition. We are that confident we can tailor a policy to your specific needs while saving you money.

As a state famous for its hospitality, we know Virginians appreciate good service. So although we hope you’ll never need our services, we pride ourselves on our agents’ friendliness and responsiveness. Should you ever need to file a claim, your personal Hippo Concierge will guide you through the process from start to finish, making the process as smooth and painless as possible. And if we learn about a potential issue in your area—one of those famous Virginia tropical cyclones, for example—we’ll give you a heads-up so you have time to batten down the hatches.

We’re excited to be here in Virginia, and our agents are standing by to find out how we can meet your needs. So if you’re ready for a new kind of home insurance, get a 60-second quote or give us a call at (877) 838-8866 to see what Hippo can do for you.
