Gallagher vs THREE by Berkshire Hathaway: How Do They Compare for Commercial Property Insurance?

Gallagher Small Business arranges building and property insurance with partner carriers rather than underwriting it; its larger property practice separately brokers property programs with underwriters for bigger accounts. ^6,7Company-reported. Small-business product page and the group-level property practice page.

THREE presents Property as a component of its combined Business Owners Policy rather than identifying it as a separate standalone policy on the reviewed product page. ¹⁰Company-reported. Company-described U.S. package structure. The page does not establish underwriting terms or that every listed category will be included for every applicant.

The buildings-and-property product page does not name the insurer that would issue a given business's policy. ⁶Not publicly disclosed. Checked the buildings-and-property product page on 2026-09-23.

The linked sample policy's declarations identify Berkshire Hathaway Direct Insurance Company as issuer. ⁹Company-reported. This is the issuer named on the public sample only; the sample does not establish the issuing entity for every state-specific quote or buyer's issued policy.

Gallagher recommends this coverage for businesses that own or rent a building, store or office, own or rent expensive equipment or tools, hold inventory, or depend on other valuable business assets. ⁶Company-reported. Product page "Do you need Building and Property Coverage?" list; actual acceptance depends on underwriting.

The reviewed product page does not state separate eligibility rules for Property; the general quote and advisor route is not proof that a particular business qualifies for it. ^10,8Not publicly disclosed. Eligibility and state availability remain unestablished for an individual risk until THREE returns its quote and applicable forms.

Gallagher describes building and property coverage as paying to repair or replace stolen, lost or damaged business property, including the building, equipment and store fixtures, after events such as fire, windstorm or a break-in. ⁶Company-reported. Product page coverage overview; the issued policy and its exclusions control.

Gallagher notes that commercial landlords insure their own building but not a tenant's property inside it, and that most small-business lenders require proof of commercial property insurance for the life of a mortgage. ⁶Company-reported. Product page context; specific lender or landlord requirements vary by lease and loan agreement.

THREE's Business Owners Policy page lists Property among its marketed coverage categories in the combined policy. This describes the product page, not whether the category appears in a particular quote or responds to a loss. ^10,9Company-reported. Official THREE package marketing for Property. The sample policy is state-selectable and does not establish that this item is included in every quote or issued policy.

The buildings-and-property product page does not publish limits, deductibles or premiums; it routes buyers to an advisor inquiry form instead. ⁶Not publicly disclosed. Checked the buildings-and-property product page on 2026-09-23.

The reviewed public product page does not state a separate limit or deductible for Property; THREE says the quote-specific insurance summary lists limits and deductibles. ^10,9Not publicly disclosed. No number is inferred from the sample policy. The quote and issued declarations control the buyer-specific limit and deductible.

Gallagher's group-level property practice lists appraisal services and global program placement among its property offerings, though these are described at the practice level rather than tied to the small-business product page. ⁷Company-reported. ajg.com property practice page; not confirmed as included in every small-business placement.

Gallagher's buildings-and-property page routes buyers to a Connect With An Advisor form asking for company details, business description, additional coverage interests, employee count and annual revenue. ⁶Company-reported. Product page inquiry form, inspected without submission.

THREE directs small-business prospects to an online quote and says licensed Small Business Advisors can help with the process. ⁸Company-reported. This is the route for the overall THREE product. It does not show whether Property will be offered for a particular business or whether a customer can bind that line without an issued policy.
