A Real Option When the Standard Market Says No
For Northern California homeowners in wildfire-exposed areas, Bamboo is one of the few admitted carriers actively writing new policies. Whether you've been non-renewed, declined by a traditional carrier, or are looking for a smarter FAIR Plan alternative, Bamboo writes both standard-risk and elevated-risk properties across Sutter County, Yuba County, Butte County, and beyond. For lower-risk homes, Bamboo competes on price and service against the traditional market too.

Common Questions
Bamboo Insurance FAQ
Is Bamboo Insurance a legitimate, admitted carrier in California?
+
Yes. Bamboo Ide8 Insurance Services is a licensed Managing General Agency (CA License #0M31082) that writes admitted property insurance in California. Policies are issued on admitted carrier paper, meaning they are regulated by the California Department of Insurance and backed by the same consumer protections as any admitted insurer.
My homeowners policy was non-renewed. Can Bamboo help?
+
Bamboo is one of a limited number of admitted carriers actively writing new homeowners policies in wildfire-exposed parts of California. If your prior carrier non-renewed your policy, contact Oakview and we'll evaluate whether Bamboo is a fit for your property. We also have other specialty carriers on our panel for hard-to-place risks.
How is Bamboo different from the CA FAIR Plan?
+
The CA FAIR Plan is a last-resort insurer of record with limited coverage and no liability protection. Bamboo is a full-coverage homeowners policy with dwelling, personal property, liability, and loss-of-use coverage. For many Northern California homeowners in elevated-risk areas, Bamboo represents a meaningful upgrade from the FAIR Plan at a competitive price point.
What is Bamboo's new HO-6 condo product?
+
Launched in early 2026, Bamboo's California HO-6 Condominium Unit-Owners policy provides walls-in coverage for condo owners. It is designed to complement your HOA's master policy by covering interior improvements, personal property, personal liability, and loss of use. It is available through appointed agents like Oakview Insurance Services.
Does Bamboo write landlord policies for rental properties?
+
Yes. Bamboo's DP-3 Dwelling Fire product is designed for non-owner-occupied homes, including single-family rentals and other investment properties. It covers the structure, loss of rental income, and property owner liability. Contact Oakview to get a landlord insurance quote through Bamboo for your California rental property.
Why use an independent agent instead of going direct to Bamboo?
+
As an independent agency, Oakview represents Bamboo alongside many other carriers. That means we can tell you honestly whether Bamboo is the best fit for your property, or whether a different carrier on our panel will serve you better. You get expert advice and carrier choice, not just a single option.
What areas of Northern California does Oakview write Bamboo in?
+
Oakview Insurance Services writes Bamboo throughout California. Our primary service area includes Yuba City, Marysville, Live Oak, Gridley, Colusa, Wheatland, Olivehurst, Plumas Lake, Sutter County, Yuba County, Butte County, and into the greater Sacramento region. We write Bamboo in California only.
