Our story

Founded by Roger Ward, Cairns Home Insurance was built on the belief that insurance should be personal, transparent and tailored to each client's unique situation. As a qualified insurance broker with deep ties to the Cairns community, Roger understands the challenges of living in tropical Far North Queensland.

We work with a panel of Australia's leading insurers to compare policies and find the best value — so you don't have to. Whether you're insuring your first home, a fleet of vehicles, or a commercial property, we're here to help.

Our Mission

To provide Cairns and Far North Queensland with genuinely personalised insurance advice, ensuring every client has the right cover to protect what matters most — backed by local expertise, not call centres.
