Subject: RE: gridlock
I feel for everyone in Florida having to pay for the price increase there. However, the state of Florida is very high risk. You can not expect for the insurance company to stay afloat to pay for your claims if they can't have a rate changes.
I live in North Carolina and we are going to have a 5% rate change in our homeowner's insurance begining May of 2007. Not because of our claims history but because of the claims activity in the southeastern part of the United States (Florida, Louisianna, Mississippi, etc.)
Our carriers are being more particular about the type of risk we write with them and one company suspended our writing without much of a heads up.
Forcing the insurance company from raising rates is not the answer. Stop building houses on the beach. Stop the building industry from raising the rates on building material and labor. Get the experts (not politicians) on the table to figure out how we can be better prepared for a major catastrophic event.
