Home Owners Insurance
Has anyone actually had their insurance go DOWN since our Florida lawmakers passed their legistration at the beginning of Gov. Crist's term? Please post and let us know. My insurance was paid in January so I paid the full amount - 3 times what it was in 2006. And we live in Central Florida - 35+ miles from the coast.
We will have to wait until the fall to see if we get any reduction. Would love to hear that some are getting reductions in their premiums.

That's what I'm afraid will happen. Do you mind telling what part of Florida you live?

I received a refund check a month ago from Citizen's, the state run wind coverage and I just got another one from Citizen's last week, so if you have Citizen's insurance for wind coverage you will probably get a refund.
It was only about 10% of the annual premium though.
But with it I bought a new boat and a pool. (kidding)

That is what I am afraid of. Been looking and it looks like about $5,000 with a lot of things cut out.

If I wanted to insure it is up 500% after doubling the value from the tax collector! but can't get due to aging houses, 4 point inspection will be required. Now they tell me you can be cancelled but have to be still covered, once you lose your insurance the companies will not write.
