Coastal Condo Insurance FAQ
What is Citizens Property Insurance and why does my condo association rely on it?
Citizens Property Insurance is Florida's insurer of last resort with ~1.3 million policies statewide. When private carriers won't cover a coastal property due to hurricane risk, Citizens provides coverage. However, Citizens rates are higher and coverage more limited. We work to find private market alternatives, especially after recent Florida insurance reforms (SB 2-A, SB 7052) that brought carriers back to the market.
What is a named storm deductible and how does it affect our assessment risk?
Named storm deductibles (2-10% of building insured value) apply per named storm event and reset after each one. A $10M building with a 5% deductible would have a $500K deductible per named event. If the association's insurance doesn't cover everything, the board may need to assess unit owners. Loss assessment coverage protects residents from these surprise assessments.
How can we reduce our condo insurance costs through wind mitigation?
Concrete block construction, hip roof design (vs. flat), secondary water resistance, impact-resistant windows, and opening protection all reduce premiums significantly. Many carriers offer 10-25% premium credits for qualifying wind mitigation improvements. We can coordinate inspections and help prioritize upgrades.
What happens if our carrier stops writing coastal policies or non-renews us?
This is common in Florida's coastal market. Our team immediately starts shopping alternatives across 20+ carriers. If private market options don't materialize, we work with Citizens or other residual market carriers. We also identify risk improvements and help the association present a stronger case to future carriers.
