The inspector then sends the report to the insurance company which then decides if they will issue the policy or not. The bottom line is...if it's a NEW policy they are NOT going to issue you a sinkhole rider.
We were able to get sink hole coverage for our new home (south of 466A) with no problem. USAA will provide it through AIS and The Villages Insurance offers it through Ark Royal.
