homeowner's insurance (comparisons)

[Smiling JOe]

Check out this new website, www.shopandcomparerates.com, which gives comparison of rates based on sampling of different insurance companies in FL. I see that State Farm made the bottom of the list.


From Gov Crist and Insurance Commissioner McCarty:

Dear Fellow Floridians, Many Florida homeowners are finding it difficult and frustrating to compare the cost of homeowners insurance. This site is intended as a starting point to help you compare rates and to demonstrate the importance of shopping around for the best policy to provide the coverage and terms you need to protect your home.


On this site you will find average approved rates from a sampling of insurance companies for a typical Florida home. The typical rates quoted here are not guaranteed rates, but are only intended to demonstrate that rates vary significantly from company to company. Please contact the insurance companies or agents of your choice to obtain a quote for your home.

Interesting information but I haven't heard of most of these companies.

I know what you mean. I wonder if they will be able to pay out if a major disaster strikes.

Note that the disclaimer on the page stating that this information should be used to show you the potential savings in costs of insurance by getting quotes from multiple insurance companies. They are not suggesting that each of these companies will sell you insurance. Some may, some may not.
