Episode 56: Jen Blackburn - What’s the Deal with Insurance in Northwest Florida?

In this episode of Between Two Doors, Nate Carver discusses Florida's property insurance with Jennifer Blackburn of Trucordia in Niceville, Florida to break down the realities of homeowners insurance in Northwest Florida.
They cover when buyers should contact an insurance agent, what’s actually included in a standard homeowners policy, and what surprises people most — from wind deductibles and roof age requirements to flood insurance changes and hurricane preparation. Jennifer explains how coastal proximity impacts premiums, why wind mitigation credits matter, and how homeowners can avoid being underinsured.
If you're buying, refinancing, or already own property in Florida, this episode delivers practical guidance you don’t want to miss.

I'm doing good.
14
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,760
We had a little winter, and.
15
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:53,640
Yeah, it's over.
16
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,440
I am so happy.
That is starting to warm up.
17
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:57,960
I was freezing.
18
00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:59,560
Yeah, yeah. Me too.
19
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,480
And I'm not good for winter.
I wasn't made for it.
20
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,960
So tell us
a little bit of back, about you.
21
00:01:06,960 --> 00:01:10,520
When did you get into insurance,
and how did you come about that?
22
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,640
I got an insurance in 2020.
23
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:17,560
I just got into it by chance, honestly.
24
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,120
We moved back into the area
of the Panhandle.
25
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,760
We lived in the keys for 15 years.
26
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,600
And we moved back here
is where my husband's family is from,
27
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,640
and it was actually where I was
first stationed back in the day.
28
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:29,520
I was in the Air Force.
29
00:01:31,320 --> 00:01:34,880
And, a job came here at Niceville
Insurance, and I took it.
30
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,080
And here I am.
31
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,320
Well, you know, I'll tell everybody
32
00:01:39,320 --> 00:01:42,720
you're my go to for insurance
in Northwest Florida.
33
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,600
Things
34
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,080
it's always about,
you know, it's about the policy
35
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,520
and the quality of policy
and the cost of it.
36
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:50,560
There's a lot of factors.
37
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,840
And, you know, I've been doing
for the years I've known you.
38
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,160
You know, you've been doing fantastic.
39
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:57,880
To full disclosure,
40
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,240
when I write a loan and not in Florida,
that's who I send it to.
41
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,160
And we're going to find out why.
42
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,000
So I truly appreciate it.
43
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,080
Yeah.
44
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,040
What do you for us
45
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,120
to learn a little different
and a little different.
46
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,080
I love the U.S.. I've been there.
47
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,120
I got a sailed there
one year, quite by accident.
48
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,640
Wasn't our destination,
but that's where we ended up.
49
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:23,640
Oh, that's ended up
staying there for a solid week.
50
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,360
Super cheap
when you bring your own hotel, you know.
51
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:29,760
Yeah. Yeah.
52
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,680
And, Gosh, it was it was, it was awesome.
53
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,040
The weather is fantastic.
It was it was great.
54
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:35,480
It was great.
55
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:36,000
Oh, yeah.
56
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:36,560
It's a lot.
57
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,680
You know, we were there for so long, and,
I always tell people
58
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,640
it's kind of like Groundhog Day
because it's the same every day.
59
00:02:43,640 --> 00:02:45,960
Like,
the weather is always kind of the same.
60
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,040
And it's so small
when you're living there, you know.
61
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,320
Everybody loves a go car.
62
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,320
You know, everybody on the car
or a Vesper.
63
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:55,320
Yeah.
64
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:56,760
We didn't have a golf cart,
65
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:01,200
but we lived, I would say
25, 30 miles from Key West, so.
66
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,360
Oh, okay. We had to make the drive.
67
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,440
Yeah. Yeah.
68
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,120
Did you ever make it out of the drive
to Ortega?
69
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,160
Yes. Yeah, you taught me.
70
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:14,000
We used to go there on school trips
with my kids. Wow.
71
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:15,040
Yeah.
72
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,440
Yeah,
they got a seaplane that goes out there.
73
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:18,640
Yeah.
74
00:03:18,640 --> 00:03:21,440
We stayed. Fun fact.
75
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,600
So that's if you're a history buff.
76
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,520
That's where Roger Mudd,
Roger Mudd, Doctor Mudd.
77
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:28,520
I remember. Yeah.
78
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,000
Connected to the Lincoln assassination.
79
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,720
He. Freedom.
80
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,120
Booth. John Wilkes booth.
81
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:41,720
So they tried him and
82
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,960
that's where they sentenced him?
83
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:45,720
Yeah.
84
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,720
Was to the Dry Tortugas prison.
85
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:53,480
And when I sailed there,
we spent the night.
86
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:58,880
I went over, was playing on the beach
or a storm kicked up a big storm,
87
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,880
and there was no way I could get
the dinghy back out to the sailboat,
88
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:03,760
nor did I want to.
89
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,520
The people on both the boats are in that
little cove are going all over the place.
90
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:09,280
Yeah.
91
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,200
And, so I ended up staying in the.
92
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,760
For the for.
93
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,280
In his jail cell because it was
94
00:04:17,280 --> 00:04:20,280
the only one
that was really shielded from the wind.
95
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,160
That's spooky. Yeah.
96
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,520
I, I didn't sleep, I was afraid that
that hypothermia just was.
97
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,600
The head was a swimsuit,
98
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,640
and I'd been swimming all day,
and so it was raining sideways,
99
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,440
and, so I sat there
and I looked out the window and every
100
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,840
I could see them right
on the mast of all the boats out
101
00:04:40,840 --> 00:04:44,440
in that little bay and that little harbor,
moving all over the place.
102
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,080
But the storm,
I was no better off than they were.
103
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,720
But I got to sleep, and I got to sleep in
Doctor Mudd's prison cell.
104
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:54,880
So I sat there.
105
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,560
I would sit there all night
until exhaustion.
106
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,480
Not sleeping, not sleeping.
107
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:00,800
And the next day, the sun came up.
108
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,760
It was gorgeous as you know.
109
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:03,360
Beautiful.
110
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:08,400
And, anyway, that's my connection to
Abraham Lincoln, and that's pretty cool.
111
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,400
I've had some friends
that have stayed out there
112
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:11,600
because they're, you know, Park
113
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,880
park rangers and stuff, and, Yeah,
they said it can be pretty spooky.
114
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:16,480
Yeah. Oh,
115
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,200
definitely.
116
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,440
Definitely. Like, you can see them.
117
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:22,240
So it's a great thing.
118
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:27,000
I'm glad if anybody know,
is this huge red brick octagon
119
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:32,120
and you can look down the hallways
in either direction and it just goes on.
120
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:33,720
It's massive.
121
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,880
And it's empty and it's haunted
122
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,080
and, Yeah. So.
123
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:41,080
Okay.
124
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:41,600
That's okay.
125
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,240
That's that. That's my.
126
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,400
Well, that's pretty cool.
127
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:46,960
Yeah.
128
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,760
So tell me why
this is the thing you love most
129
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,760
about what you do in the insurance world.
130
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,440
I think
it's just like looking at properties
131
00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:00,880
and trying to find the right fit and
make sure people have the best coverage
132
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,360
and that they know
what they're getting into.
133
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:08,600
Just being in South Florida and North
Florida and a little bit of time
134
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,480
in the middle of Florida, I feel like
I know kind of the state in general.
135
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:17,360
So, it just it really it
I enjoy looking at different properties
136
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,520
and trying to figure out,
you know, how to best
137
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,400
get them covered and even to cover them
because sometimes and, you know,
138
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,800
in Florida,
it's not so easy, to get coverage.
139
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:27,360
That you
140
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,360
just right in the state of Florida
or you go.
141
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:34,640
We have
I have licenses and actually in Texas,
142
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,600
I've never really written over there,
but we are trying to branch out where,
143
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,800
we've applied for, Alabama and Georgia.
144
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:47,080
I think we have I already have Texas
and Louisiana, but, I haven't we've done
145
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:51,560
a little bit of Alabama, just like coastal
and kind of closer to here.
146
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:52,800
What? I have a branched out.
147
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,360
I have licenses in the other states, but
I haven't actually done them too much yet.
148
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,120
Right. Okay.
149
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:00,480
So I'm going to state to Florida.
150
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:01,400
Yeah. Florida.
151
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,160
Florida is my specialty right now. Yeah.
152
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,520
So way
153
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,200
first time homebuyers.
154
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,840
I love working with them.
155
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:12,320
Then a bunch of them, too.
156
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,680
And some of the cool
questions that they don't
157
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,960
necessarily know
158
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,960
or wouldn't, you know, wouldn't know that
they got their own lives to run.
159
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:23,440
Yeah.
160
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,680
At what point in the whole buying process
should
161
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,920
should buyers talk to an insurance agent?
162
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,120
I get a contract. I set up the line.
163
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:34,880
Yeah. About from there.
164
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:36,600
Right? Right. In the beginning.
165
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,600
Because you kind of
want to know your estimates.
166
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,360
Because depending on the home price range,
especially with your mortgage,
167
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,760
with your lenders,
you're kind of want to know where you're
168
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:45,440
where you're going to be.
169
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,720
Payment wise, if that's what you're,
you know, kind of worried
170
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,760
about a lot of people, especially
first time home buyers, I feel like
171
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:54,080
are worried about, you know,
how much the mortgage is going to be.
172
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:58,520
So right in the beginning, when you find
a house, it takes nothing for them to call
173
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,800
or find an insurance agent
and just get an estimate.
174
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:02,000
You know?
175
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,440
I think that's really important
because sometimes you would think
176
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,360
you look at a small house thing.
177
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:08,560
That's not going to be very much.
178
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,640
But depending on the age of the home,
179
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,160
you know, things that haven't been updated
180
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:14,240
in the home,
it can end up being quite pricey.
181
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,240
So it's really good to kind of
get out there in the very beginning
182
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:18,960
and try to get an estimate on it.
183
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,960
At least, you know, just a quick estimate.
184
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,960
So what can they expect
185
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,640
that would be covered
in that homeowner's policy.
186
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,800
So your traditional homeowner's
policy is going to be your dwelling
187
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:37,960
your coverage a your other structures,
your contents and your loss of use.
188
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,400
Those are kind of your big main four.
189
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:41,200
And then from there
190
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,600
you can add on separate coverages
depending on what you need for the house.
191
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,520
But those are the big four.
192
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,480
The biggest one with especially with
your lenders are replacement cost
193
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,720
on your dwelling
on your dwelling coverage.
194
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:57,560
So that has been a big one these days
because I feel like with Florida
195
00:08:57,560 --> 00:09:02,800
they try to do like a depreciated costs
on your roof and stuff depending on age.
196
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,400
And I know lenders are kind of a
no no with that.
197
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,680
So, you just really need a really know
what you're getting into
198
00:09:09,680 --> 00:09:13,440
when it comes to your coverage,
especially your dwelling contents.
199
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,480
Contents is a little bit more malleable,
because that's kind of what you think
200
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:18,320
you only like.
201
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,440
It's you're anything you can unplug
and kind of shake out of your house.
202
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,520
So, you know, you have a little more
say in what that number is.
203
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,000
But, yeah, that's just like the biggest.
204
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,200
Thing is that is is the contents.
205
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,640
Is that required to be insured?
206
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:34,280
With
207
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:38,120
primary home insurance like occupied,
like owner occupied homes?
208
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:42,840
A lot of them, a lot of standard home
insurance requires 25% of contents
209
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,840
coverage based off your dwelling off
your coverage of your dwelling coverage.
210
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,400
So a lot of them are
do have that picture the 25%.
211
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,400
There are certain companies
that sometimes will go lower.
212
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,720
And we're starting
to see a little more and more.
213
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,280
So it's good to ask
if you want to go lower than that.
214
00:09:59,280 --> 00:09:59,920
Yeah.
215
00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:04,160
And if you're doing it as a rental though,
you can you can put it down to zero.
216
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:05,480
There you go.
217
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,640
And I was going to say sometimes,
sometimes the,
218
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,320
the, the debt to income
ratio is just razor thin.
219
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:13,320
Yeah.
220
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,200
And you got two options either,
221
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,320
you know, we look at buying less house,
putting more down
222
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,480
or we're, we're looking at,
you know, our insurance,
223
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:26,120
it's got to cover,
but maybe we don't have to cover 100%.
224
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,040
Yeah. I mean, there's there's, you know.
225
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:29,960
If content.
226
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,080
Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you,
227
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:34,920
but I think the contents isn't like,
your priority.
228
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:39,600
Like, if you're really just price driven,
you can talk to the agent about taking
229
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:43,600
the replacement cost of contents off
if it's a, you know, owner occupied home.
230
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,000
Because that is a significant,
endorsement,
231
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,280
because, you know, it guarantees
that if you lost your contents,
232
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,440
they're going to give you
the exact amount of cost to buy it, right.
233
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,720
Then if you take that endorsement off
to where they're giving you
234
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:59,480
the depreciated cost of the TV
of the couch, you know,
235
00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:01,960
it's a pretty significant endorsement.
236
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,200
So it can it can cut down in front of it.
237
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:05,960
Also. Good.
238
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,320
I think that's what's good.
239
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,520
What's not covered?
240
00:11:11,680 --> 00:11:13,040
Like, what are you saying?
241
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,920
What's not covered? Like,
your land is not covered.
242
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:17,440
I think I was surprised by that.
243
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,240
Sometimes it's only structure.
244
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:20,680
So only. The structure.
245
00:11:20,680 --> 00:11:20,960
Yeah.
246
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,440
So, like, most of the time,
your plants and stuff aren't covered.
247
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,440
Trees aren't covered
unless it falls on your house.
248
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:29,760
That's good to know. Let me. Yeah.
249
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,520
So destroys property.
250
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:35,440
You know, then I've been through the North
Texas or or North Florida are huge.
251
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:35,840
They are.
252
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:37,080
They are huge.
253
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,040
And so yeah, I'm going to go rolling in.
254
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,480
So if you lose one that's
not on the insurance, that's not covered.
255
00:11:43,560 --> 00:11:46,560
But unless it damages property.
256
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:48,120
Then you got a different story. Okay.
257
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:49,680
And then you got a different story.
258
00:11:49,680 --> 00:11:54,720
And then I think another big surprise
I think people are, shocked
259
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:55,640
about is pests.
260
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,640
So like, and here in North Florida,
the squirrels,
261
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,600
if they get into your house,
into the walls and stuff,
262
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,720
you know, a lot of people
call their insurance for damages on that.
263
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,720
And pests are not covered by home
insurance.
264
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,160
So squirrels, this crazy thing.
265
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:15,440
Squirrels in north west Florida
love well, yeah.
266
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,040
And they eat the LED facets on the
on your roof.
267
00:12:19,560 --> 00:12:19,800
Yeah.
268
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,080
If they're made out of red, they will.
269
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:23,320
That's how they get them.
270
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:23,760
Yeah.
271
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,760
Is that is that a thing that's covered
if it's under.
272
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,080
If it's pests if you get in
273
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,080
pest related
it is not covered in your home insurance.
274
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,520
Wow. I didn't know that.
275
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,240
Yeah I can't believe they paid it.
276
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,000
I don't know how we have any proof left.
277
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:40,800
I mean.
278
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,840
That's why you see so many people
trying to get rid of, or, you know,
279
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,880
trying to find ways
to get them away from their house and.
280
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:48,360
Then the mouth or.
281
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:49,720
Yeah, I mean, I don't know how long
282
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,720
the squirrel lady lives
after eating a pound of leg.
283
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:54,800
I don't. Know, I don't know.
284
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,320
I think the ones around here
are superhuman. So.
285
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:58,720
Yeah. Yeah.
286
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,800
It's
287
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,960
specific to Northwest Florida.
288
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,040
Well, are there things that you're seeing
that are different
289
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,280
versus the rest of Florida, or is there
290
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,320
if someone is looking for insurance,
maybe they're considering
291
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,360
insurance as part of their overall costs
for housing.
292
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,360
Maybe if they're
293
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:27,800
is there other zones or areas
that they should really try to avoid
294
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:33,080
as far as you know, or are you seeing
where prices go up considerably?
295
00:13:33,560 --> 00:13:36,440
Well, I think anything on the coast
is definitely going to be a little higher
296
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,280
because we don't have the market on.
297
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,280
It is smaller,
so there's a lot of companies,
298
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,960
you know, especially admitted companies,
standard Florida companies
299
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,080
that don't, have a lot of coastal areas
blocked off.
300
00:13:47,560 --> 00:13:50,360
So you're limited to the amount of quote
you're going to get back
301
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:52,520
or amount of rates,
and they're typically a little higher.
302
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:55,680
So if you're looking for something
a little less
303
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,880
something
not as close to the water usually helps.
304
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,960
The newer the house, the better
the premium.
305
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,080
I mean, I think people have already seen
starting to see that the older
306
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,080
the house, it really a lot of times
just not matter.
307
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:08,800
Yeah.
308
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,920
Because they're just going to rate high
regardless.
309
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:14,400
So an old house by the water
is probably your worst bet price.
310
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:15,560
Okay.
311
00:14:15,560 --> 00:14:16,440
How about it?
312
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:20,000
Is there anything like I always have
Interstate ten?
313
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,160
Anything north of Interstate
ten tends to be.
314
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:24,440
Very less expensive.
315
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,360
Yeah, very less expensive South of that.
316
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,120
And of course, closer
you can South Interstate ten.
317
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:30,920
You're getting closer and closer to.
318
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:32,680
Oh yeah, the Gulf of America.
319
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:32,960
Yeah.
320
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,960
The closer
the closer you get to that water.
321
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,800
Prices go up a little bit and that's,
you know, all around that's cost us.
322
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,440
Yeah. Yeah.
All over them. Yeah. All around
323
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:48,080
and even
matter for what side of the street.
324
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,280
Oh I know, I know, yeah.
325
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,000
Yeah. Tough luck. Right.
326
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,720
Well, let's say,
let's talk about wind and hurricanes.
327
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,640
Yeah. A few named storms out there.
328
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:04,040
In the past, what buyers
really need to know about those.
329
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:09,360
So your biggest thing is your deductibles,
your hurricane deductibles.
330
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:13,080
If you're with an admitted carrier
or one of the standard Florida carriers,
331
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:17,080
you typically have a separate wind
and hurricane deductible.
332
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:21,560
Your wind deductible is typically
the same as your all other payroll,
333
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,280
which default average in Florida
is usually around 2500.
334
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,640
And then your hurricane deductibles
about 2% of your coverage.
335
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:33,560
A if there is a name storm anywhere around
Florida, tropical hurricane,
336
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:35,720
everything will be tied to that
named storm.
337
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:37,600
So it will automatically go into that
338
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,600
hurricane deductible
most of the time anywhere.
339
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,320
If that storm is anywhere around Florida,
340
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,520
is. There is that so?
341
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:46,720
Is there a limit?
342
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:50,120
Let's say on the calendar,
if there's a named storm
343
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:55,520
that the insurance companies will wait to,
344
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,400
is there anything like that where they
they won't find
345
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:03,080
a new insurance policy
or they'll wait till.
346
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,160
Oh, yeah, they'll they'll put a
they'll put a close on all policies,
347
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:08,080
on all bindings.
348
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:12,160
Once a storm is in the Gulf, you can
pretty much shut all of Florida down.
349
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,840
Yeah. Same with the winning side.
350
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,840
Yeah. You know, and that's a no no
351
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:22,120
where
we're at in the lending process once.
352
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,200
Yeah. Once it's named we're stuck.
353
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:24,880
Yeah.
354
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:27,600
Well you can't get too far
355
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,240
without the inserted in the lending.
356
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:30,400
There's this. Right. Yeah.
357
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,080
To chainsaws
is going to help the neighbor out.
358
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,080
Exactly. And so then.
359
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:40,280
Yeah then we're, we're left
with, we've got to get a, a
360
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,960
confirmation
that the house is still there.
361
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:45,920
New appraisal.
362
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:46,760
Oh, yeah.
363
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,720
You know,
so there's, you know, it's kind of a reset
364
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,400
on the whole process,
but everybody's reset.
365
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:54,200
So it really,
366
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:55,400
you know, there's a plan.
367
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:56,600
We'll work through it.
368
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,600
We've have
369
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:01,640
We've all been there.
370
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,240
Yeah. Yeah.
371
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,440
I might go some other direction.
372
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,360
We've had plenty.
373
00:17:07,360 --> 00:17:09,520
Yeah.
374
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,240
So are you.
375
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,280
We never,
376
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:14,120
I'll be buyers.
377
00:17:14,120 --> 00:17:15,840
They'll come in and look at a house.
They'll know.
378
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:19,480
They'll find out the roof is, you know,
maybe it's got ten years left on it.
379
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,640
There's significant
380
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,640
savings to putting a new roof on there.
381
00:17:27,120 --> 00:17:29,400
There is. Depending.
382
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:33,040
While the more updated the roof is
and you usually have more of the credits
383
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:37,640
are that are required to get,
you know, to get their the lesser premium.
384
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,160
So it's better to have an updated roof.
385
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,960
But a lot of companies,
even though they're trying to get away
386
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:47,520
from making it a 15 year roof,
they still require it.
387
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,040
And, you know,
388
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:53,160
so if you have anything over 15 years,
the same thing,
389
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:54,640
you're not going to get as many quotes
back.
390
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,560
You're not going to get
as many rates back.
391
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,360
So if you're within
the 15 year mark, though,
392
00:18:00,360 --> 00:18:01,920
you probably are okay.
393
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,680
It's just yeah, depending on the company
you go with, once you hit that 15
394
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,360
mark, a lot of them
expect you to get a new roof.
395
00:18:07,360 --> 00:18:10,760
So it's just the cost
that you're going to have after the fact.
396
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,960
But definitely
the more updated the houses,
397
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,200
the better you are going to get in credits
all the way around.
398
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,840
And with that,
you have a special little clip
399
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,840
called what is Hurricane Clip, right.
400
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:25,040
Is that the official.
401
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,240
Is that really the clip is hurricane clip
402
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,320
and it's a real it goes on the joints
403
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:36,080
in the joints in the roof framing.
404
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:37,520
Yeah. Right.
405
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,520
And so is that
406
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:45,720
I know that was made about some deals
and people run and go get that stuff done.
407
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:49,400
It is super easy to do when they're not
when you're putting a new roof on.
408
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:50,080
Yeah.
409
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:54,760
To put those in not so easy to do,
I guess whenever once that's done.
410
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,800
You know, going in after the fact
still cost you a few thousand dollars
411
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,720
and it's just an issue.
412
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,400
But you definitely want to when you're
looking at your homes with the roofs,
413
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,040
because most all the time
you're going to want to get
414
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,080
a wind mitigation
in the four point inspection.
415
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:13,040
When you're buying a house in Florida,
especially if it's an older home,
416
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:17,280
always the four point, the newer homes,
you don't need the four point as much.
417
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,280
It's just nice to know
what all is in the house,
418
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,680
you know, just so you don't
get any surprises in the other way.
419
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,680
But the wind mitigation, you're going
to want to look for those hurricane clips.
420
00:19:27,120 --> 00:19:28,400
That is a big credit.
421
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:32,360
The longer nails, and the pattern
422
00:19:32,360 --> 00:19:35,440
that it's
in, there is a larger credit for that too.
423
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,880
Secondary water resistance has been
getting a little bit more of a credit
424
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,400
than it has in the past, but
it's still not as big as the other two.
425
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,800
The Florida building code credit,
426
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,640
as long as it's over a 2003 roof,
you're going to get that.
427
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:51,880
So that's a large one also.
428
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,720
And then of course, hurricane protection,
which the only time
429
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:57,320
you're going to get
that hurricane protection credit
430
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:00,320
is if every opening in your house
is hurricane rated. So
431
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,480
not too many people
have that one as much as the other ones.
432
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,480
Is there the wind mitigation
433
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,480
or the four point inspection?
434
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:11,960
Our home that's
435
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:15,320
been here in implemented in Florida
for a while is that,
436
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:20,360
are you finding homes
that are like a large percentage of homes
437
00:20:20,360 --> 00:20:24,760
that aren't protected
or don't have that upgrade, or is I'm
438
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:29,240
curious, is at some point you would think
all sterling, all new homes being built.
439
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:30,960
Oh, yeah. The code.
440
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:31,760
Oh yeah.
441
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,040
If it's a brand new home,
you don't need any inspections
442
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,240
because they're getting
all the county code credits.
443
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,680
They're getting everything because
everything in this area now is county code
444
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:43,600
wise, having to have opening protection,
all of the roof, everything.
445
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:45,280
So it gets it automatically.
446
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:46,920
It's usually your older homes
447
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,320
and you'd be surprised
people are still getting roofs put on
448
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:54,600
and just don't know to look for
you know, ask for the hurricane clips
449
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:58,440
and the longer nails and they're still
keeping the smaller nails and not paying.
450
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,760
And they're keeping the toenails, which is
what's outside of the hurricane clip.
451
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,200
That's not as, good of a credit.
452
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,560
And it's just not knowing that.
453
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,240
Yeah, they should put it on there.
454
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:12,000
And so, yeah, you're still getting
new roofs that don't have the credits.
455
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,320
And what if it does it?
456
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:16,680
It doesn't have the hurricane clips
the went for.
457
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,960
If it doesn't
then it's going to get rated without it.
458
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,720
And it's usually a pretty big it's job.
459
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:22,480
Yeah.
460
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,480
Yeah I've seen some the cost to do it.
461
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,520
I've seen the interest rate
or the interest rate.
462
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,120
I've seen the insurance policies.
463
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:31,880
The, the cost of
464
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,880
not doing it is significant.
465
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:39,000
But the cost to go in
and do the hurricane clips,
466
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:43,720
I was like this will pay for itself
in four months or 4 to 6 months.
467
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:49,400
And in the difference in your insurance
premium and there are like,
468
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,400
you know, there's a no brainer
just like do this, we get this done.
469
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,960
I think, you know, in that case,
in that specific case,
470
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:56,800
they were replacing the roof anyway.
471
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:58,200
And they're like, should we do this?
472
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:02,880
Part of the seller didn't want to do it,
but the buyer definitely want to do it.
473
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,320
Yeah, I can't tell you
what you can do on that one but I don't to
474
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:10,160
we do You're buying a new house
and then getting that roof replaced.
475
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,920
I would make sure that's all getting done.
476
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,680
Yeah, it was incredibly.
477
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,440
It was, it was
it was inexpensive to do that compared to.
478
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:24,000
It is way easier to add it
on to the replacement of a roof than it is
479
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:27,840
to go back after the fact and do it or not
have it at all.
480
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:30,600
Yeah.
481
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:31,040
All right.
482
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:35,000
So House being a brand new home buyer,
483
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:39,680
should a homeowner revisit,
their insurance policy.
484
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,320
I'd like to tell my customers
to look at it every year.
485
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:48,040
And only because we've seen in the past,
you know, not from right now.
486
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,600
Everything's
kind of steady and stable and plateauing.
487
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,760
So the increases haven't been too crazy
if you're in something.
488
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:58,040
But we've seen in the last few years
that it can be different
489
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,440
and it'll just jump up and go
crazy and companies leave.
490
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,120
So I really have everybody review
every year.
491
00:23:04,120 --> 00:23:07,680
Just so you know what your prices are,
because a lot of times, especially,
492
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,440
customers that have their homes
escrowed, you know, because a lot of us
493
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,760
don't look at it,
you don't look at your renewals.
494
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,440
And then if they have their homes
as road, they're not finding out
495
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:21,800
that their insurance rates went up
until six months into the new policy,
496
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,360
because that's when the escrow
is actually being reviewed and caught up.
497
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,760
And so, you know, you know,
as you know now you're getting
498
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,720
a little bit of increase from back pay
and a little bit of increase
499
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:34,880
as a projection of what your next one is.
500
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:39,680
So if you have an eye on it
every year, you really have to know
501
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:40,760
what you're getting into.
502
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,480
You know, price wise,
how much it's gone up,
503
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,400
how much to expect it on, you know, the
lender side or the mortgage side to go up
504
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:47,400
and you're not,
505
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:49,080
you know, half way in the middle of a year
506
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,320
going, oh my goodness
I want to change my insurance
507
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,760
and how to do the whole refund
and all that stuff.
508
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:59,360
So I really encourage people
to renew it every year if they can.
509
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:00,440
All right.
510
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:04,080
Any, any life changes or home changes
511
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:09,320
that might trigger the homeowner
at that point to, to reach out to you.
512
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:10,280
Definitely.
513
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:11,840
Any upgrades, you know,
514
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:16,280
if you're putting a pool in
or if you're resurfacing your home,
515
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,680
like if you're going from like a wood
siding to a hardy
516
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,440
plank siding, Hardy flake
siding is a much better product,
517
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,040
and you get a little bit of credits
for that.
518
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,120
So any kind of anytime
you do an update to the home,
519
00:24:26,120 --> 00:24:29,240
even if you don't know
if you get credits for it or whatnot, it's
520
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,520
always good to reach out to your agent,
just,
521
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:34,520
you know, having a pool, you want to make
sure you're covered for that pool
522
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:35,400
because, yeah,
523
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,200
you know, a lot of times
with a lot of companies
524
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,360
nowadays,
they don't really go up in coverage
525
00:24:39,360 --> 00:24:42,400
unless the customer reaches out and says,
I want to increase it.
526
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,560
So, you know, I think a lot of people
are probably under-covered
527
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,280
that have been in a policy
setting for a long time.
528
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:52,520
So it's always good for any kind of
update or upgrade to kind of reach out.
529
00:24:53,120 --> 00:24:53,600
Okay.
530
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,520
Briefing, I think we talked a little bit
about that.
531
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,160
You said about 15 years.
532
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,880
Out, 15 years for metal,
you can go about 30.
533
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,320
They've they've gone out
a little bit farther on that one.
534
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:05,520
So that's nice.
535
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:09,200
I find that concrete tile
is probably the hardest.
536
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,040
They're not looked at as long as metal.
537
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,560
They're about 25, 20, 25 years.
538
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:17,760
They're still kind of hard on them,
which is hard for all of Florida because
539
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:19,200
especially South
540
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,360
Florida and parts of North Florida,
they really like the concrete tile roof.
541
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:24,240
Yeah.
542
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:28,280
And you would think they
that having more longevity, but, metal
543
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,640
seems to be the one that kind of goes out
a little farther right now.
544
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,080
Do you know if there's a roof type
545
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,720
that has, like,
546
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,160
I don't know, the one and done
never happened?
547
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,880
No. Ever again. No.
548
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:45,360
I've seen concrete.
549
00:25:45,360 --> 00:25:48,600
Reinforced concrete probably doesn't
get messed with the most, but that.
550
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:49,520
Yeah.
551
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:53,480
You know, yeah, I never know.
552
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:58,400
I always I love the idea
of having a tin roof, but I saw they were
553
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,480
somebody was advertising a 50 year roof
554
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,480
made out of tires, recycled tires.
555
00:26:05,120 --> 00:26:06,040
Yeah. I've never I never.
556
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,040
Thought. That,
557
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,480
I think every everything has a guarantee.
558
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,320
That's why I, you know, a lot of customers
come off.
559
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:14,320
I got a 30 year guarantee on the shingle.
560
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:18,120
I'm like, well, I understand,
you know, on the shingle itself,
561
00:26:18,120 --> 00:26:23,000
but when it comes to, you know, weather
and stuff in Florida, the insurance stuff.
562
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:23,840
Yeah, look at that.
563
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,880
I read that they are on
fire there in the sky.
564
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:27,400
Yeah.
565
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:29,360
It gets a.
566
00:26:29,360 --> 00:26:31,040
We're down a little bit.
567
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:31,800
Yeah.
568
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:32,240
Yeah.
569
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,240
It has the they and all of that.
570
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,080
Do you see any anybody underinsured.
571
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,080
Is that pretty common or.
572
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:39,440
Yeah.
573
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:39,920
And and
574
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,160
I'll kind of touched on a little bit,
I feel like when you've been in a policy
575
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:47,480
for a long time, and if you don't review
your insurance and, you know,
576
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:52,040
the cost of stuff has obviously gone up
quite a bit the last 2 or 3 years.
577
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:56,000
So the cost of, you know, build
a house is not the same as it was a couple
578
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:57,120
years ago.
579
00:26:57,120 --> 00:26:59,840
And if you don't actively call out
and try to,
580
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:03,280
you know, get your insurance increased,
a lot of times it's not where it quite
581
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:03,720
needs to be.
582
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:05,720
If you've had if you've been sitting
with it for a while,
583
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,600
your brand new homes that were
now insuring, yeah, they're getting more
584
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:12,400
of the today's prices,
when it comes to quotes and rates.
585
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,120
But yeah,
if you've been sitting in one for a while,
586
00:27:14,120 --> 00:27:17,080
you definitely want to reach out
and just make sure.
587
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:22,280
Okay, let's talk about biggest
myths or mistakes
588
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:26,560
that you see, buyers
making when they're buying a home.
589
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:27,920
They're looking at insurance.
590
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,680
What are you seeing that you're like,
oh, I would do that.
591
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:31,160
You know.
592
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:33,400
I think the biggest pet
593
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:37,360
peeve for me is, really quotes.
594
00:27:37,360 --> 00:27:39,360
So like,
if you go out and get an insurance
595
00:27:39,360 --> 00:27:42,680
quote, especially from, you know,
kind of a broker type of agency like us,
596
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,360
we're all writing with the same people.
597
00:27:45,360 --> 00:27:49,240
So if you're getting quoting someone else
and you got one of our quotes,
598
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,160
they're going to be exactly the same.
599
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:55,160
A lot of times
you really got to look at your
600
00:27:55,360 --> 00:27:59,400
coverages, amounts
and what's been added endorsement wise.
601
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,400
And so if you're getting something
that's drastically different,
602
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,720
it's really nice if you get with the agent
that you were originally working with
603
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,720
or whoever you got an estimate from,
and really go through and find out why.
604
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:10,400
So you know what you're getting into.
605
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,880
Because a lot of people,
if they're coming in significantly lower
606
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:16,040
than what someone else is giving you, it's
because something was taken off
607
00:28:16,360 --> 00:28:19,880
that you might have needed
or wanted and not, you know, been told.
608
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:21,080
Yeah, otherwise.
609
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,560
So I would think that's,
the biggest thing
610
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,880
when you're buying a home
is when you go out and get rates.
611
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:27,680
It's just to really look at,
612
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,720
you know, your different quotes
and what you're covered by
613
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:31,640
because we all kind of right
with the same name.
614
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:35,000
The Florida standard
carriers are the same all the way around.
615
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:39,440
So, yeah, that's kind of our biggest pet
peeve on this side.
616
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,880
Other surprises
with buying a home in Florida.
617
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,320
I mean, I think they think, you know,
618
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,800
when it comes to Florida premiums,
that it's the home insurance.
619
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,240
It's really just the wind coverage.
620
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,720
The wind coverage
is the brunt of your premium.
621
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:59,240
So like your typical home
insurance policy is probably similar
622
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:00,560
to what you get in other states
623
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,240
that cost, you know, very, very low.
624
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,760
But once you add that wind coverage,
that's your brunt.
625
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:07,520
So the higher
626
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:11,400
you put that deductible on that wind,
usually the lower you can bring it down.
627
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:13,400
Yeah.
628
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:17,720
And lenders you know,
lenders will work with borrowers on
629
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,880
how much you know the
you know the premium.
630
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:26,960
So they may
maybe maybe you have a higher deductible.
631
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:32,160
As the lender will want to see
cash reserve because you own
632
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,960
you might have a $50,000 deductible
I don't know.
633
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:35,960
Yeah, yeah.
634
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:39,360
If you don't have $50,000 in the bank,
some.
635
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:43,040
Yeah.
636
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:44,000
You know, and the lender's
637
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,120
not going to want you to get set
up, to be set up for failure.
638
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,400
Really. You know, I don't as a loan.
639
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:53,400
So I want to make sure we got
a great product that fits your budget.
640
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:57,920
And and that's why, you know, working with
you is on the insurance piece.
641
00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:02,080
You know, that's just one of,
you know, you're part of the team.
642
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:03,880
Yeah. Team.
643
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,880
Team homeownership. Team. Eldership.
644
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:08,840
Well,
I tell everybody, when we have customers
645
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,040
that call in wanting to raise everything,
I'm always like, well,
646
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:14,480
you need to clear if you have a lender,
you need to clear that lender
647
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:18,080
before we make any changes, because, yeah,
they'll come back and find you.
648
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:19,160
Yeah.
649
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,880
You know, you want to make sure you're
well protected. So.
650
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:24,680
Yeah. Exactly.
651
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,120
The biggest myth about Florida insurance.
652
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:32,280
I don't really know of any myths.
653
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,400
I mean, it's it's high.
654
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,320
I mean, that's, you know,
I think that's the biggest one.
655
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,440
Everyone thinks when they come in here
is that Florida insurance is super high.
656
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:43,400
And it is it's the highest in the nation
when it comes to home auto,
657
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,000
pretty much all of it. So,
658
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:50,600
trying to think of something that was
what have you heard?
659
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,600
Have you heard anything?
660
00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:56,360
I think.
661
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,480
Premiums. Will get into flood zones.
662
00:30:59,960 --> 00:31:01,200
Oh, yeah. Flood zones.
663
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:02,680
Oh, you know, the flood
664
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,960
zone is not a myth,
but the one thing that is kind of thought
665
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:10,240
about with flood is usually the higher
you're like, I'm, I'm on high ground.
666
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,240
So that flood shouldn't be as expensive
as it is.
667
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,680
And in the past,
that made a big difference.
668
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:16,000
Yeah.
669
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,280
The FEMA has changed their flood rating
670
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,760
for the first time in like 30 to 40 years
a couple of years ago.
671
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:27,080
And so now distance to water
is actually very large contender.
672
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,360
Yeah. That's the one I've seen. Builders.
673
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,480
They're like,
oh, we're building it on a burden on more.
674
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,840
We've built up,
What it doesn't matter anymore.
675
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:36,440
It doesn't.
676
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:36,800
Yeah.
677
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,280
That that has changed.
678
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,200
And so it doesn't really.
679
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,240
The rest of the coast
has become a larger factor.
680
00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,520
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
681
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:48,440
That's interesting.
682
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:48,600
Yeah.
683
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:49,800
That's the one I know of.
684
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,480
One thing
you wish every homeowner understood about,
685
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,000
my home for storm season.
686
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,000
I think the biggest thing
is just keeping your home cleared up.
687
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,560
So your trees.
688
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:05,560
We have a lot of people that start,
you know,
689
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,200
making sure you're looking at your trees
and which way they could fall.
690
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,560
And maybe, you know,
I won't say cut down trees,
691
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:15,080
but make sure it's all turned up and,
you know, not so close to your home
692
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:18,720
keeping you know, debris out of the yards
when a storm comes.
693
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,320
Just making sure you have shutters.
694
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,360
If you don't, you know,
you don't have that impact rating.
695
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,240
You want shutters in front of your doors
and windows just for things that fly.
696
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:29,240
Just being prepared for stuff like that
when it comes to your home
697
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,000
and securing it up
before you leave is a lot of times
698
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,560
if the storm's big enough,
you know we all take off,
699
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:38,400
but just you know, paying attention
to what you have around your house
700
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:39,800
when it comes to storm season,
701
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,800
just because anything becomes a missile
at that point.
702
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:46,120
Yeah, you're and you're,
703
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:50,080
you're you're talking about trees earlier,
your city, the county
704
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:55,440
and your electric company
or co-op will come and clear powerlines.
705
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:57,680
Oh, yeah.
706
00:32:57,680 --> 00:32:59,600
Before the storm watch. Yep.
707
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:04,000
That way, you know, you don't have a limb
that falls over and wipes out your power.
708
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:04,680
Other crops.
709
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,080
They're great about picking up debris
before or after.
710
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:08,200
I mean, there's always.
711
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,000
I've been trying to work with you.
712
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,240
I feel like in these places where
we get the hurt, you get hit by hurricane.
713
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:17,080
So it's not that, you know,
you don't have it accessible to you.
714
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:20,080
It's just getting out there
and making sure it's all done.
715
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,240
All right, some closing questions.
716
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:24,920
Rapid fire, if you will.
717
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,920
One tip,
718
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:31,080
one tip for first time homebuyer.
719
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:34,920
One tip for first time homebuyer.
720
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:38,360
I would just say make sure you look into
estimates for home insurance.
721
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:41,520
I think that becomes the biggest surprise
that people don't think about
722
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:42,960
when it comes to buying a house.
723
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,560
Is you don't think about the price
of your home insurance.
724
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:48,880
And here in Florida,
that's kind of one thing,
725
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,160
especially in Florida,
you need to kind of pay attention to
726
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:54,280
because it's a little different river
market than it is in other states.
727
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:55,960
All right.
728
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,240
And one tip for a seasoned homeowner.
729
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,560
Keeping up with your renewals, making
730
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:07,760
sure your house is updated, keeping up
and watching your prices every year
731
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:11,640
so you know, you're not so surprised,
when things come to fruition.
732
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,640
And also making sure your home is covered.
733
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,520
There you go.
734
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,400
What's something you wish
any of them would ask you
735
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:20,720
when they're looking for insurance?
736
00:34:20,720 --> 00:34:22,400
What's that thing you're like?
737
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,400
Oh, they didn't ask.
738
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,000
That's a good question.
739
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,000
I come up with them from time to.
740
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:35,960
Kind of think of what it is
that I wish people would ask.
741
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:38,840
I would say,
742
00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:43,280
you know, maybe more of your endorsements,
like what you could have
743
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:46,600
that protects you outside of
just the dwelling and contents.
744
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:50,480
You know, there are a lot of things
you can add to your home when it comes to,
745
00:34:51,240 --> 00:34:54,160
and it's things I may not know
because it may not be updated
746
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,240
somewhere
online is like screened enclosures.
747
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:02,000
Carports, pools,
748
00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:07,480
just ongoing,
you know, home systems protection.
749
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,480
There's a lot of little things
we need to make sure that, you know,
750
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:14,880
is on your policy that we may not know
is on your policy unless we're, you know,
751
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,240
you give us the information
because it might have just been built or.
752
00:35:17,240 --> 00:35:18,520
Yeah.
753
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,960
New to the, home that you're purchasing.
754
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:22,720
Also,
755
00:35:22,720 --> 00:35:25,720
just a little things that are out there
that are outside of your,
756
00:35:25,720 --> 00:35:29,200
you know, your actual
dwelling and contents that you might want
757
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:33,320
to have need more information on or,
you know, other coverage.
758
00:35:34,240 --> 00:35:35,360
Okay.
759
00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:38,280
Well, one last, last rapid fire,
760
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:41,000
best way to prepare for a hurricane.
761
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,680
Well, I think we were over there
a little bit, but it was.
762
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:44,040
Just make sure you're all picked up,
763
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:47,040
take all the debris out of the yard,
clean up your trees.
764
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:51,560
And you know, board up those windows
and leave.
765
00:35:51,720 --> 00:35:54,720
And leave. Yes. Yeah. True. And it just,
766
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,720
you know, us Florida people or her dog.
767
00:35:58,720 --> 00:36:03,400
Oh, no, I know, and I'm I'm just leaving.
768
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,200
We're not leaving
if it's not a three or above.
769
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:07,040
That's true.
770
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,560
And,
I stuck around for the last. Michael.
771
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:13,520
That was a while back, but,
I was like, oh, yeah.
772
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,800
And on one side of that storm,
it was perfect.
773
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:18,400
On the other side of that storm,
it was a disaster.
774
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,360
And it could have went either way
right there at the second.
775
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:24,120
So it sure got in. It often does.
776
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,080
And then we lived in the keys for Irma.
777
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:27,560
Same thing like. Yeah.
778
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,560
You know, like you just didn't know
until but we left.
779
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:31,240
Yeah.
780
00:36:31,240 --> 00:36:34,480
Well now I don't have the
that was the last one.
781
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,040
After that I've, I leave I just leave it.
782
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,440
It's not the storm. It's the aftermath.
783
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:41,360
Oh it is you know.
784
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:42,200
Depending on
785
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:45,840
you know, if you get a hurricane
in September or October 1st, it's rare.
786
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:46,880
But if you did.
787
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:51,280
But whether it's kind of great, usually
when it's over open, it's not so bad.
788
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:53,840
Still have no power.
789
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:55,360
Yeah. No water.
790
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:57,800
Well, have no grocery stores.
791
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,120
And it's like months.
792
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,360
It's like months like that. Not just.
793
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,760
Yeah, a week. And a half.
794
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:07,360
Do you want to go with that? And I'm like,
not at all.
795
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,160
I just go somewhere else
and and skip all that.
796
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:10,600
Right.
797
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:15,360
So that's I say I'm,
I like to be a lot more easier.
798
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:16,720
Yeah.
799
00:37:16,720 --> 00:37:19,400
And I think people think sometimes
they can just leave after the storm.
800
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:22,400
And you can
sometimes the roads are shot, you know.
801
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:23,880
Yeah.
802
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,960
That, you know, you didn't trim in
you're in the road.
803
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,640
So and they're, you'd tell you
804
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:35,240
if you're being not live in Florida
the trees are massive.
805
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:36,840
They are massive.
806
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,880
Well after Michael, all the trees
because we have a little,
807
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,960
I call it a beach shack and Saint
Joe Beach and.
808
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:46,160
Yeah, just the trees
all the way down there from Tyndall on a
809
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:47,720
they're just.
810
00:37:47,720 --> 00:37:49,800
Yeah. Cut and sliced in half.
811
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:51,360
All the way up to Interstate ten.
812
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,560
Yeah, yeah, it's it's a
it was amazing what it did.
813
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,160
Yeah. Anyway. Yeah.
814
00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:58,440
There you go.
815
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:00,960
That's my opinion usually, but it's.
816
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:02,320
Yeah. That's a good one.
817
00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:04,200
It's the safest. It's the safest one.
818
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,880
Because if, you know, if nothing happens,
everything is good.
819
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,280
You just drive right back
and get back to your house. Yeah.
820
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:10,120
I mean,
821
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:13,840
I've been there when it's been a bad storm
and no power for a week, and it's hot.
822
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,760
It's miserable. It's it's. A home.
823
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:18,160
You know, now
that we're talking about storms, that's
824
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,520
another coverage
I think people don't think about is more.
825
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,240
Yeah. The mold and fungi.
826
00:38:23,240 --> 00:38:25,840
I mean, it's not,
it's it's a it's an added endorsement too,
827
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:29,360
but typically it's about 10,000
like kind of per occurrence.
828
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,520
And you can go up to 2550.
829
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,960
But I have noticed like down
in South Florida when we couldn't
830
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:39,800
come back, a lot of the houses
got pretty much totaled because of mold.
831
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,560
Wow. And.
832
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:42,880
You know,
833
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:46,640
nobody could come back and I got, you
know, had some openings in the moisture.
834
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,760
So make sure you have
some mold coverage on there just in case.
835
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,360
Wow. Oh that's great advice.
836
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:57,240
Oh so how can someone connect with you
if they've got questions?
837
00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,000
Will follow up with you.
