Response to "just to clarify" - the mandated credits tied to mitigation efforts are claimed by State Farm to be overstated, and not yet adequately tested in the real world. Should the credit be 10% or 20%? Nobody knows for sure. State Farm claims the OIR overstated the value of mitigation efforts and thus drastically reduced the premium coming in the door. If their right, the rates are now actuarially unsound.

I have no idea who is right here, but in view of the fact that Citizen's rates are known to be inadequate, and the reinsurance pool is also known to be inadequate, I tend to believe State Farm a bit nore than I do the OIR.
