Subject: RE: Be the Consumer...
When I first moved to FL a few years ago and started hearing about HO insurance rates, I decided that, if it was going to be ridiculously high for me to afford, then I would choose to rent rather than buy. Someone made the comment "Well, the homeowner is just going to pass on the full cost of the insurance to you." If that's the case, it will manifest itself in the rent being charged and I will still be able to choose a place that I can afford because it would be alread accounted for in my monthly budget as rent.
Now, for people currently living in a home that they own, no, it may not be an easy decision to make, but it is still more viable than "leave the state".
