Some maybe, but not all. Don’t overlook the fact that on many (if not all) of the roof replacements north of 466 could be due to age of the roof. Mine was 20 years old when I replaced mine this year. It was worn. Some due to storm but mostly just due to normal wear and tear and age. My insurance company gave me well under $1,000 check for damage. I had to pay the rest. No defective materials involved.

We just received a notice of nonrenewal from Tower Hill Insurance. Reason given was reduction of hurricane exposure. Our agent said Tower Hill is dropping 15,000 customers in Florida. We've had no claims for the last 40 years.

Yep, go shop around. I recommend getting quote from AAA.

Very few in old areas if any. You don’t get new roof after 15 or 20 years from defect.

Never heard of some of these companies. I once got snooker on whole life insurance scam once. Learnt that lesson 40 years ago.

I called USAA for an insurance quote after I was cancelled and first of all they wouldn’t even write me a policy for my house at any price and the auto quotes were hundreds of dollars more than I was paying.

Yeah..... Insurance Companies have a strange way of saying "thank you".

Stop using the villages ! I got a quote from ASI (progressive) for identical coverage villages wanted 100% more ! Call progressive

Stay away from the villages for banking insurance everything

As far as my memory will allow, USAA stopped writing homeowners' policies back in 2007...that's when I moved from Hawaii to Hobe Sound FL and after I had had USAA insurances on everything for 20 yrs plus. Reason: too expensive for Hurricane claims paid out.
