Hurricane Ian will increase property taxes

[Rainger99]

According to State Senator Jeff Brandes, home owners insurance may go up 40% next year as a result of Ian.

[Kenswing]

So, what’s going up, insurance or property taxes?

[Garywt]

What does an increase in insurance have to do with property tax?

Hurricane Ian could cripple Florida'''s home insurance industry - ABC News (https://abcnews.go.com/Business/hurricane-ian-cripple-floridas-home-insurance-industry/story?id=90638752)

"""Industry analysts say years of rampant and frivolous litigation and scams have brought Florida's home-insurance market to its knees, with many large insurers like Allstate and State Farm, reducing their exposure to the state in the past decade.""""

Those 'free' roof replacements are getting costlier by the day!

MAY is a meaningless term like many, some and everyone

Henny-Penny can't keep her story straight.

[Keefelane66]

So property taxes increase will probably subsidize insurance industry sort of like I scratch your back you’ll donate to my re-election

[JMintzer]

A gift to all from the northern Villages.

Yup... It's the Northern Villagers who are always trashing those in the south...

But I'm sure it ONLY the Northern Villagers who received "free roofs" in Florida...

We know the answer and had same ? Post said property taxes and when you click it it says insurance. Someone made changes.

Unlikely any roofs older than 15 yrs South of 466A...

And no one replacing them "knew" it was a scam, thanks again...

You actually think this is a problem isolated to TV? SMDH...

Depends on how you define North

I'm confused. A free roof raised insurance and property taxes? But only up north. Oh, why not.

If we can save everyone else all over the FRi@@ing then why can't we save ourselves? Let the word WE mean whoever you feel like having it mean, our government, ourselves etc. First let's help the people with their world upside down and inside out and then worry about such things.

The question here is what have you done for someone else in your own state who is hurting? Try sending a couple of dollars to an organization that is real and who helps. Others would know better than I who that would be.

Then we'll worry about taxes and insurance. Wake up!

[RICH1]

This is an uncomfortable subject !
Can we talk about how lucky we are after dodging a Hurricane…

You’re exactly right! That’s why Ins. companies never go broke you pay to have Ins. & even if you don’t have a claim, you pay. It doesn’t seem right but if you do have a claim you’re glad you have it because then everyone else’s Ins. will go up & yours will too! It’s a no win situation.

You never know how good your insurance company is until you make a claim.
You will never know how well an insurance company is covered financially, until all insured make a claim.
I warrant a few Florida insurance companies will struggle to meet their Hurricane Ian commitments!

I have a friend who lives in North Port. Lost his house and his Bread Delivery Truck and Trailer during the storm. He got paid immediately for the vehicles and the house should be settled shortly. He feels very fortunate. He almost cracked when he was describing the sound of 150 MPH wind for almost an hour. I invited him here but as of now he doesn’t have enough gas to wait in line for gas. Bad planning but I just did a lot of listening. No time to preach. Thank God he survived.

Nobody will be able to afford it soon, it already doubled in last 4 yrs.

I don’t think so PROVIDING. A junior Representative voted against funding damage of Super Storm Sandy. The current administration has already authorized startup funding. BUT in December Gov DeSantis will need to petition both the House and Senate for full funding. Without this funding we may be it trouble.

No, they voted against a bill that also included $Billions in Pork...

The majority of the "Hurricane Sandy Relief Bill" had nothing to do with relief for the victims of Hurricane Sandy...

Just as the "Inflation Reduction Act" has little to do with reducing inflation. It is mostly "Green Energy" funding...

Oh, and I'd be careful with your political posts... They are a "no-no" per the rules of this site...

[OhioBuckeye]

You’re exactly right!

[Laker14]

No you're not.

So the shift is the hurricane will cause taxes to rise rather than the decision to punish Disney. Gov lucked out with that one. According to State Senator Jeff Brandes, home owners insurance may go up 40% next year as a result of Ian.

Taxes or insurance? Seems many in this thread are confused about what the thread is actually about...

Have you seen the prices of new cars lately, or food? No need to start a new panic, we can't take anymore..

It was supposed to be about insurance - not taxes. I made a mistake in the title - it said taxes not insurance - and corrected it right away. However, even though I corrected it in the title, it did not correct in the posts. I sent a message to the moderator asking him to change it but he never responded. Does anyone know how to change the title?

You can't change it. You must endure endless abuse because you made a mistake.
