How Can Preferred Services Help You?

Your life is complex and your time is valuable. Explore a few scenarios below where our insights make all the difference, helping you protect what matters most.

THE CHALLENGE:
Whether you’re remodeling or building from scratch, your home is one-of-a-kind and you’ve invested a lot of time into making it perfect. But keep in mind, standard Property Insurance only covers finished homes—so damage during construction often isn’t protected. Builder’s Risk Insurance exists, but many insurers limit it to commercial projects, leaving custom homes exposed.

OUR PREFERRED APPROACH:
As an independent brokerage, PROLINK has access to premier insurance companies that offer Builder’s Risk coverage for high-value homes. Our advisors can help identify exposures and tailor coverage for your unique features, both during construction and after your dream home is complete.

Are you designing your dream home?

THE CHALLENGE:
When it comes to real estate, location is everything. But whether you plan to develop or sell, it’s essential to protect your investment. Even if you don’t live on the property or aren’t ready to build, you can still be held liable if someone is injured on your land. And once you start any construction—even a fence or shed—you may void your existing vacant land coverage.


OUR PREFERRED APPROACH:
Our premium insurers can cover vacant land anywhere in the world (excluding regions with ongoing conflict). Your advisor will assess your needs and help tailor a policy that provides coverage for any third-party injuries and or future construction, keeping your investment well-protected.

Have you purchased vacant land?

THE CHALLENGE:
Your collection is more than just valuable items—it represents years of passion, investment, and personal taste. Standard Home or Personal Property Insurance often falls short, leaving gaps if items are lost, stolen, or accidentally damaged. Even small oversights, like how pieces are stored, appraised, or transported, can affect how claims are handled.


OUR PREFERRED APPROACH:
Our experienced team and specialty insurers understand the unique needs of collectors. Your advisor will guide you in securing coverage that reflects the true value of your items and provide practical advice on protecting it at home, in transit, or while on display, so you can enjoy your collection with confidence.

Do you collect fine art or jewellery? 

THE CHALLENGE: 
Vehicle thefts are at an all-time high and recovery rates remain low. Even with modern security systems, most pre-installed alarms aren’t enough to deter theft—criminals know where sensors are and can often bypass them. No matter how secure your property is, your car can still be at risk, even in your own driveway.


OUR PREFERRED APPROACH:
Whether you drive a classic or high-end sports car, seasonal vehicle, or luxury truck, our team can advise on strategies to reduce theft, like garage parking and concealing your VIN. We’ve also partnered with Tag Tracking, North America’s premier vehicle recovery service, to offer an advanced anti-theft tracking system that will help locate your vehicle if it’s stolen.

Do you own a high-end vehicle?

THE CHALLENGE:
If you have an extraordinary home or a seasonal property, you’ve probably thought about renting it out. But no matter how many rules you set, accidents can happen at any time. Unfortunately, using your private residence as a short-term rental turns it into a business property, which could void your Home Insurance. And most insurance companies have little appetite for rentals to begin with.


OUR PREFERRED APPROACH:
Working with an experienced personal insurance advisor gives you access to specialty insurers—companies that are selective and don’t offer coverage to just anyone. With decades of experience and a strong reputation for managing risk, PROLINK can secure coverage for short-term rentals that standard policies won’t touch, helping protect your property and your peace of mind.

Do you have investment properties?

THE CHALLENGE:
When you have multiple properties, luxury automobiles, and valuable possessions, it can be difficult to navigate the ins and outs of your insurance. While you’re focused on your next success, the last thing you need is to be passed between account managers who don’t fully appreciate the nuances of your demanding lifestyle.


OUR PREFERRED APPROACH:
At PROLINK, you’re paired with a dedicated advisor and single point of a contact who truly understands you. They’ll provide tailored guidance on coverages and risk management strategies, giving you confidence that your assets are protected, without the hassle. In the event they’re not available, you’ll have access to additional contacts who are well-versed in your circumstances—we'll never put you in a call centre environment. 

Do you value a personal connection?

THE CHALLENGE:
Even a small leak from a storm, a clogged drain, or a malfunctioning appliance can tarnish your furniture and valuables. While every home is at risk, properties with more bathrooms or appliances and those near water, on slopes, or in low-lying areas are especially vulnerable. And when it comes to water-related claims, Home Insurance can be complicated and strict, leaving many unsure of what’s covered.


OUR PREFERRED APPROACH:
Our team will recommend optional extensions to your Home Insurance that help restore your belongings after water damage. We’ll also keep you aware of insurance companies’ strict requirements for water-related claims and the steps to take before leaving your home unattended for an extended period of time—failure to do so could void your coverage.

Are you sure you’re covered for water damage?
