It’s a well-known fact that Florida is a hurricane-prone state. Six of the ten costliest hurricanes in US history took place in Florida.
If you live in Florida, you may be asking, “How much is hurricane insurance in Florida?”
Here’s the short answer: Florida hurricane insurance varies depending on the coverage you purchase, but the good news is that most homeowner’s policies will include certain hurricane coverage benefits.
On average, homeowners in Florida pay $2,047 per year for homeowners insurance. On the other hand, renters pay an average of $119 annually for renters insurance, which is quite similar to homeowners insurance when covering weather damage.
Policies can be cheaper for insurance policies that include a higher deductible, but that would leave you paying more out-of-pocket for repairs before your coverage kicks in. Many Florida insurance policies also include a second deductible for damages caused by windstorms generated as part of a named storm system.
Finally, know that hurricane insurance does not provide coverage for flooding, which must be purchased in a separate National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) policy.
If you live in Florida, you’re probably wondering whether your homeowner’s insurance policy covers damages caused by storm surges or floods. In this section, we’ll be going over homeowner’s and renter’s insurance, what they include, and whether they cover hurricane and other Florida weather damage.
Almost all homeowners living in hurricane-prone states like Florida have asked that same question. In most cases, you can expect your homeowner’s insurance to cover damage to your property caused by rain, wind, or falling/flying debris from a hurricane.
That being said, depending on your insurance company and circumstances specific to you and your home, you might be required to add a special insurance rider to your homeowner’s policy or pay a hurricane deductible when your property gets hurricane-related damage.
Since Florida is a high-risk state for hurricanes, it’s quite likely that you’ll be required to pay a deductible for hurricane coverage.
Although Florida homeowners insurance policies cover hurricane damage, you need to remember that it doesn’t cover damage resulting from hurricane-induced floods or storm surges. You’ll have to buy separate flood insurance coverage for that type of damage. If you live in an area in Florida that’s particularly vulnerable to hurricanes (such as South Florida) and your home is subject to a mortgage, the bank may require you to purchase flood insurance as an addition to your homeowner’s insurance.
Similar to homeowners insurance, renters insurance covers hurricane damage but not damage resulting from floods or storm surges caused by a hurricane. However, because what’s considered flood damage can vary and be quite nuanced, you must understand what kinds of water damage are excluded from your renter’s insurance policy.
In most cases, covered water damage includes internal leaks and rain damage resulting from your apartment’s structure being damaged.
Because renters insurance, like homeowners insurance, won’t cover you if the damage is caused by an uncovered peril such as flooding, you’ll need to purchase separate flood insurance coverage.
But one difference between renters insurance and homeowners insurance is that while the latter may require you to pay a hurricane deductible in the event your property gets damaged in a hurricane, renters insurance has no such requirement.
If your rental property gets damaged and you need to file a claim, you’ll need to pay your set deductible, typically $250 or $500, before your insurer sends you the funds.
As you can see, having a homeowners or renters insurance policy can be quite expensive, especially if you live in a hurricane-prone state like Florida. And you may end up paying excessive amounts for storm damage if you don’t get a fair settlement from your insurance company.
