As a person who is considering TV, I would like to hear from folks who recently have purchased and if the home insurance was difficult to obtain [on resale or new]? Hard to find a company? Was the premium shockingly high? Did it influence your decision to move to TV? We have only been looking at properties with new roofs, updated water heater and HVAC, believing that will help keep premium lower. I read an older post on the forum and some said their rates have gone up for the last few years, some drastically, some a little. Thoughts please. Thank you
One option to consider: KIN Insurance. I did my research and was impressed and we switched to them two years ago. Check multiple review sites on your top choices. Some review sites are funded by the companies themselves but good info is out there.
