The crime and sinkhole issues here in The Villages are not strivitual matters ... for the residents. All ideas are welcome. |

There is no reason why sinkhole insurance should be expensive. If a sinkhole occurs it will only effect one or two homes. It's not like they are a daily occurrence either. One or two a year would be a lot. Unlike hurricane's or earthquake's that can cause wide spread damage. A Villages Only insurance pool is a great idea. If you had half the people join (50,000) at $50 a year you could have a pool of $2.5M the firs year alone. With that kind of money you could pay for sinkholes in your yard that do not damage the house. I can not believe that no one has done this.

The Villages is 36 Square Miles or 23,040 acres in size. The damages from sinkholes total about 1/4 of an acre, perhaps less, therefore the chances of you getting a sinkhole are about 1 in 92,160, still pretty slim.

How do you come up with 36 square miles? That would essentially mean 6 miles long and 6 miles wide. It is way bigger than that! Last figure I heard was around 125 square miles.

Having been involved with both opportunities starting and owning an agency is alot easier that starting an insurance company, especially one with one purpose... Sink Holes. Not impossible to do, just very difficult. |
