Florida homeowners insurance

A better way to review your Florida home insurance

Florida home insurance involves more than a headline premium. Roof age, wind mitigation, replacement cost, and coverage form can all change what a policy actually does when you need it. Request a review and connect with an insurance professional who can walk through it with you.

What this coverage generally addresses

  • Dwelling and other structures on the property
  • Personal property inside the home
  • Personal liability and medical payments to others
  • Loss of use if the home becomes uninhabitable

Common coverage considerations

  • Replacement cost vs. actual cash value on dwelling and roof
  • Wind mitigation credits and roof deck attachment
  • Ordinance or law coverage for code upgrades
  • Screen enclosure and pool cage coverage limits

Who may need it

  • Homeowners at renewal or shopping the market
  • Homebuyers preparing for closing
  • Owners after roof, kitchen, or major system updates
  • High-value homeowners with rising rebuild costs

Florida-specific considerations

  • Roof age is a major underwriting factor with most Florida carriers
  • Wind coverage terms may include separate hurricane deductibles
  • Flood is a separate policy — it is not included with homeowners
  • Four-point and wind mitigation inspections are often required

Watch for

Common mistakes or gaps

  • Dwelling limit hasn't kept up with rebuild costs
  • Only actual cash value on the roof
  • No ordinance or law coverage in a coastal build
  • Personal property limits set once and never revisited
  • Umbrella liability limit is too low for current assets
  • Flood not addressed at all
