I always viewed TV as a safe place to live. What's going on at the Villages with regard to homeowners insurance? Is it really a gamble to self-insure when 3 years of premiums would pay for a new roof?
This is odd… we came from CA too, and paid more for insurance there than we do here. We’re south of 44 in a new home in DeLuna. We pay less than $1000 annually for the largest Veranda Model, 2300 sq ft. Our agent is Kelly Matz with State Farm on Warm Springs, and she also lives in DeLuna. We bundle home, car, and golf cart. We did choose a higher deductible to assume some of the risk. Give her a call.
