(“Baldwin”) (NASDAQ: BRP), a leading full-service agency specializing in personal lines insurance for the homebuilding industry, announced today a new strategic collaboration with Landsea Homes, a publicly-traded residential homebuilder.

This relationship will enable Landsea Homes to offer home insurance to their customers through Landsea Insurance Agency by using Westwood’s technology platform.

"This collaboration aligns with our mission to provide competitive home insurance solutions to our clients, even in a hard market, and to help our builder partners and their buyers close on time.”

As the preeminent insurance agency for the homebuilding industry, Westwood offers a fast and easy home insurance experience. Once homebuyers sign a contract to buy a new home, they can receive a personalized quote within 24 hours and can secure a home policy online within minutes.

“With the latest launch of Landsea Insurance Agency, our hope is to help make the process of finding competitive insurance rates as seamless as possible, whether you’re buying your first home or your fifth,” said Mike Forsum, President and Chief Operating Officer of Landsea Homes.
