QUOTE=bsloan1960;2129662]Link to story: Florida’s homeowner’s insurance crisis hits The Villages – WFTV
I just spotted this. Is anyone being affected by this / have ideas get affordable insurance?[/QUOTE] I was effected by home and car. I had progressive and my car insurance went up 400.00 last six months now another 700 this six months. We had no tickets or accidents and drive our cars less than 5000 miles per year. Golf cart went up 200 for the year and home owners 800. So I contacted Felicia Russell with Allstate in wildwood. She packaged all my insurance and for the exact coverage my whole bill was approx 2000.00 less. So I had her write all new policies. She is professional and really cares about you. I spend two hours in her office and got what I wanted for less. If you haven’t already call her she knows her business |

Dumped them a few years ago when our premiums almost doubled and they couldn’t find us any better deal. Did much better with an independent insurance agency outside the bubble.

Give it a few years, from your join date of 2021 on TOTV I am guessing your roof isn’t more than a couple years old?

When questioned their answer was “that’s the way it is”. We do as little business as possible anything tied to the developer. |

Unscrupulous roofing companies spent an entire season climbing up healthy rooftops of homes, breaking off a piece of a single shingle, and telling the homeowner that this was "proof" that they needed an entire new roof that would be covered by insurance. They would take pictures of the "damage" from various angles, and submit it as evidence to the insurance company, so the homeowner didn't have to do a thing. Meanwhile, the roofing companies were padding the damages, inflating the costs, knowing exactly what each insurance company would pay for a roof replacement. The roofs - for the most part - didn't need replacing at all. Some of them really did have damaged shingles but those individual shinges could have been repaired, replaced, or even remained damaged if the damage was minor enough. The companies scammed the insurance companies, made bank, homeowners got brand new roofs that they didn't need, and everyone else's rates went up as a result. |

Meanwhile - as I live in a manufactured home, there are only a couple of insurance companies that will cover my home at all. We have a metal roof so we don't really have to deal with increases resulting from aging roofs, but our premiums are higher than houses because manufactured homes are considered less stable and a higher risk for damage/catastrophic destruction during hurricanes and other incidents.
