Just received my HOI quotes on rentals. The premium has increased and, in some cases, to over 50% over the 2021 rate!!!

The agent told me it's because both the materials and labor cost has gone up. But at 50%?

What's your experience?

Many companies didn’t take the rate increases they need to over the last two years. My HO policy went up about 30%. My commercial coverage about 25%

Mine went up about 15%, which seemed low considering the higher cost of materials, labor, and the new state law banning the use of discounts for good credit scores.

I wonder what they are figuring the increased risk is, from people being home more than they used to be.

Increased expenses almost always results with increased premiums for insurance and cost of goods. Nobody should be shocked and I certainly don't look forward to potential premium increases. I know that I don't have much, if any, control over that. Your best option is to ask for policy comparisons/analysis to see if you can save money on those premiums. It's like the old saying, "Nothing is guaranteed but death and taxes'.

What state? If it's in FL, then this is the norm.

Residential SFR in Raleigh, NC. Changed from 45+ years with USAA until the Homeowner rates got crazy. Switched to Erie in January 2020, saving about $800 a year. Premiums are roughly exactly the same - in fact, our liability umbrella went down.
