Is Your Vacant Property Really Protected?

Many property owners are surprised to learn that simply continuing to pay their insurance premium does not always guarantee coverage if a property becomes vacant.

If your home, rental property, or commercial building sits vacant for an extended period, your policy may contain vacancy limitations or exclusions that can significantly reduce or even eliminate coverage for certain types of losses.



A property may be considered vacant if:

No one is living in the home for an extended period.

A rental property is between tenants.

A business location is no longer operating.

A property is undergoing major renovations without occupants.

Depending on your insurance policy, losses such as vandalism, theft, water damage, glass breakage, or even fire damage could be affected during a vacancy period.


Before your property becomes vacant:

✔ Let your insurance agent know.

✔ Ask whether you need a Vacant Property endorsement or separate policy.

✔ Review your policy's vacancy provisions.

✔ Take steps to secure and regularly inspect the property.

One quick phone call before a property becomes vacant could help prevent an unexpected claim denial later.


If you have questions about a vacant home, rental, investment property, or commercial building, we're here to help review your coverage.

Cybersecurity Awareness…

Protection Matters All Year Long

Cyber criminals don't take holidays, and identity theft continues to impact millions of Americans every year.

Whether you're shopping online, banking digitally, working remotely, or simply checking email, protecting your personal information has never been more important.

That's why FRM Group Insurance and Financial Services offers Cyber & Identity Protection through CyberScout.


Three levels of protection are available to fit your needs.

Coverage may help with:

  • Identity theft recovery
  • Credit monitoring
  • Fraud resolution assistance
  • Data breach support
  • Cyber extortion assistance
  • Personal cyberattack recovery
  • Expert guidance from trained specialists


The right protection can help prevent problems before they happen and provide valuable support if you ever become the victim of a cybercrime.



Ask us which CyberScout protection level is right for you and your family.

FRM IN THE COMMUNITY

2026 Angels for Aging Campaign

This holiday season, we're proud to support the 2026 Angels for Aging Campaign, helping brighten the holidays for seniors throughout our community. Many older adults spend the holidays alone or with limited resources. This wonderful program provides gifts, personal care items, and much-needed encouragement to local seniors.


We invite our clients, families, and community partners to join us in making a difference.

Together, we can help make the holidays a little brighter.

Give a Little Joy

This Holiday Season


FRM Group Insurance and Financial Services is once again helping bring holiday cheer to local seniors through our Angels for Aging campaign in partnership with the Monroe County Area Agency on Aging.


The agency provides the names of area seniors along with two holiday wishes for each person. Beginning Monday, November 2, those wishes will be placed on the Christmas tree at our Stroudsburg office for clients, staff, and members of the community to choose.

Participating is simple: choose a wish from the tree, purchase the gift, wrap it, and return it with the senior's name attached.


All gifts must be returned by Friday, December 4, 2026 to:

FRM Group Insurance and

Financial Services

1286 N. Ninth Street Stroudsburg, PA


Representatives from the Monroe County Area Agency on Aging will distribute the gifts to local seniors for the holidays.

A small gift can mean so much to someone during the holiday season.


We hope you'll join us in helping make Christmas a little brighter for seniors throughout Monroe County.

Stroudsburg office at 570-421-7447.
