Joe Race · Founder, Ohio Luxury Home Insurance
Joe Race is the founder of Ohio Luxury Home Insurance, part of The Allen Thomas Group. For over 20 years, the agency he built has specialized in insuring the state's most discerning homeowners. Coverage is placed directly with Cincinnati Insurance and Chubb, and coordinated with clients' wealth advisors so real estate, collections, vehicles, and liability are protected as one picture instead of separate policies with gaps between them. Every client works directly with a specialist trained in his methodology.
What a full asset review typically finds
You already know a standard policy won't cut it.
If you're here, it's probably because something feels unresolved about your current coverage:
- Your policy was written for an average home, not the one you actually own
- Fine art, jewelry, or a collector car sit under a generic 'personal property' cap that wouldn't come close to replacing them
- Your agent has never asked about your asset portfolio, your liability exposure, or how your coverage fits with your wealth plan
- You don't know what's actually covered until a loss happens, and by then it's too late to fix it
Where standard policies usually leave Ohio homeowners exposed
Dwelling replacement cost
Standard policy caps often fall 20-40% below true rebuild cost on custom and high-end construction.
Scheduled valuables
Jewelry, art, and collections frequently sit under a $1,500-$2,500 blanket sublimit on standard homeowners policies.
Personal liability
Standard liability limits rarely reflect real net worth, leaving a gap that an umbrella policy is specifically built to close.
Illustrative example based on common gaps we find during asset reviews, not a specific client case.
We built this agency specifically to close those gaps before they become claims.
Common questions
How we work with high-net-worth homeowners
What makes an insurer "high-value," and why does that matter for a home like mine?
A high-value carrier prices and underwrites each home individually instead of applying a formula built for the median property. Standard policies cap personal property broadly, jewelry at $1,500 to $2,500 and art at similarly low limits, and pay only up to the stated dwelling limit even if rebuild costs run higher. Cincinnati Insurance and Chubb, the two carriers we place coverage with, remove or raise those caps, and Chubb adds guaranteed replacement cost, so the policy pays the full rebuild amount regardless of the stated limit.
Can I buy Cincinnati Insurance or Chubb coverage directly, or do I need an agent?
Both carriers distribute high-value homeowners coverage exclusively through licensed independent agents. Neither offers a direct-to-consumer quoting path, and neither is available through a captive, single-carrier agency. An independent agent with active appointments at both carriers is the only way to compare them for your specific property.
How is working with an independent agency different from a captive agent?
A captive agent can only quote you their one company's product. We hold appointments with Cincinnati Insurance and Chubb and run your property through both, so you see an actual coverage-by-coverage comparison rather than a single insurer's take on your risk.
Do you coordinate with my financial advisor or wealth manager?
Yes. Insurance planning works best as part of the same conversation as your estate, tax, and investment planning, not siloed from it. Every asset review includes working directly with your wealth or financial advisor so your coverage, umbrella limits, and any scheduled valuables line up with the rest of your financial picture instead of being decided on their own.
How much umbrella liability coverage do I actually need?
There is no single number, but a common starting point among wealth advisors is umbrella coverage roughly equal to your net worth, and many high-net-worth households carry $5 million to $25 million or more in umbrella limits layered on top of home and auto policies. The right figure depends on your assets, income, and specific liability exposure, which is why we size it during the asset review rather than defaulting to a standard $1 million or $2 million policy.
What is the difference between scheduled valuables and the personal property limit on a normal homeowners policy?
A standard homeowners policy bundles jewelry, art, and collectibles into one blanket personal-property limit with sub-limits as low as $1,500 to $2,500 per category. Scheduling valuables means each item, a specific ring, a painting, a wine collection, is individually valued and insured at that value, so a single loss doesn't get flattened into a shared cap it was never built to cover.
What actually happens during the full asset review before I get a quote?
We review your property's construction and replacement cost, walk through collections, vehicles, and valuables that need scheduling, and talk through your liability exposure, including any staff, watercraft, or rental properties. That review becomes the basis for the coverage we place, so you get a specific recommendation instead of a generic quote built for an average home.
Is this only for owners of large estates, or does it apply to a smaller high-value home too?
High-value carriers generally start being relevant around $750,000 in replacement cost, not market value, since replacement cost and market value diverge quickly on custom or older construction. If your home would be expensive or slow to rebuild at today's material and labor costs, or you have jewelry, art, or a collection that exceeds a standard policy's caps, it is worth a review even if the home itself does not look like an "estate."
