Do You have State Farm for Home Owners Insurance??
|
They won't insure a Sumter County home over 10 years old.

When we was getting quotes two years ago I almost when with State Farm. At time they wasn’t writing in any houses before 2003? Something about different hurricane building standard? My house just slide in meeting the new standard. I went with someone else the rate compared was reasonable the same at much lower price. Glad I did now.

Mine too- 15 years old- lower premium
Sinkhole deductible went from 42,000 dollars to 2,100 dollars |
19 Years for us. No issues to date.
Rates are in line with other providers. __________________________________________________ _ :censored: |

I made a mistake - no houses built 2003 or before. My math was wrong.

This year Allstate raised rate to about $3300 so I am searching again. I opened an inquiry on the net and got many responses. Most interesting was recent response from the State Farm. I was told that current State Farm philosophy is that roofs should have a life of 20 to 30 years. However, they require a 4 point inspection of the house by a non State Farm agent to insure condition, and that is submitted to State Farm Underwriters for review and hopefully approval. My 4 point inspection occurred today. They inspected plumbing, AC /heat, Electrical and Roof. Interestingly, the roof inspection was done by drone. I received a copy of the report submitted to State Farm and it said roof is good for five years. Underwriters must approve. I was told that I could improve life by replacing Shingle caps, but that would be my decision. Any way am waiting underwriting approval. I have agreed to move my two cars to State Farm. If accepted rate decrease from current is about $1500. This is current, actual, and pending. I would say give State Farm a Chance . So what if they ask for Roof inspection verification. Better than auto 15 yrs and out. |

I had State Farm in NJ for many years and transferred it to FL when I moved to TV six years ago. In a recent conversation with them I was told that they are still writing policies in FL. There was no mention of exceptions but I’m sure there are many. My house was new when I bought it so I’m good for a while at least. You never know how good your insurance is until you need it.

State Farm
This guy solicits claims, he says to help people to file and get paid so they can in turn pay him the proceeds.
I worked over 30 yrs with State Farm claims, we saw this all the time were roofers came into our office to make claims for people. Told them we didn't need their help, we were trained enough (some adjusters were roofers before coming to us). I ignore this kind of entries on TOV. |

I agree with Bassfish. I am also retired State farm claims. This guy is a public adjuster in Indiana. He tries to make money by inflating claims. He is just like one of these roofers who knock on your door. If you have legitimate damage to your home a good insurance carrier will take care of it. The main issues are when people don't understand what their policy covers and doesn't cover. Insurance policy are not maintenance policy for homeowners.
