Right. Just read a Tampa article about State Farm - largest insurer in FL next to Citizens. State Farm says they're going to stay in FL... but I'm not counting on that. Their exposure is huge and they've been restricting new homeowner policy writing for over a year.
KNOW THIS - Homeowners in FL are now on the hook big time for Citizens (the state insurer of 'last resort' - Citizens is well over the exposure limit that they can cover. In the event of a large claim event (hurricane etc) EVERY FL homeowner will pay the claims. Yes - all of us. What's the deal with our politicians? total mess - all parties should be working to fix this.
