The deductible is typically 10%. You many find lower values if you shop around, for example State Farm.

Hurricanes are covered in the standard homeowners policy when living this far inland. Living on the coasts is a different matter.

The sinkhole debate will keep going on. If you do get it, the deductible is usually 2 percent of the insured value of your home. Depending where you move in The Villages (by a lake or pond, newly developed area), it is very unlikely you would need it but that is a personal choice. Catastrophic ground collapse is covered in the standard policy with the standard deductible.

I use the services of Sandy Manion at Villages Insurance.
