The strange part was that a new roof in MA is only worth $38 in home insurance premium. . Yet, companies are not insuring houses with >10 year old roofs. . .

IMO insurance companies not in business to give out good deals, just enough deal to undercut competitors….maybe good investment, roof replacement not going to cheaper that’s for sure.
