We have also used The Villages Insurance and dealt with Shannon Mattiucci at their Colony office when we purchased our designer in St. James last November. We had lived in Wesley Chapel (just north of Tampa) for 6 1/2 years prior to relocating into The Villages. Our car insurance went from $1,220. every six months to $600. and actually on my last renewal decreased (can you believe I said decrease) to $558. and our homeowners at our previous home was $1,700. per year and here it is $900. We are definitely comparing apples to apples here also as our home values were about the same, with sinkhole coverage. ASI, also known as Ark Royal is the company our homeowners is through now and was also the company we had on our previous home.
When living in Wesley Chapel, a small tornado hit our home, ripped off my lanai and sent my neighbors porch furniture through my dining room window and after I stopped screaming hysterically, called ASI and a rep was there in 45 minutes. They were great to deal with.
