I agree with you Alice, I don't think there is any hope for property insurance in Florida, this has been going on for decades. Even with some of the newest reform bills for fraudulent lawsuits which accounted for almost 80 percent of insurance claims, there certainly is an uptick of severe storms hitting FL, and way too many homes built where they shouldn't be. I'm sure many would like to update their older homes with hurricane proofing, but the average Joe can't afford it after digging so deep into their pockets just to keep their homes right now.
We're going to be non renewed next year since our insurance company is pulling completely out of FL. I'm paying a different company for my dad's insurance and they too are non renewing next year, not pulling out, just don't want to write a house over forty years old. Neither of us has every put in a single claim in over 40 years.
We're seriously thinking of doing the same thing as Elaine next. year when we get canceled. What else can we do to stay in the place we love.
