You need hurricane coverage

As a Florida homeowner, it’s a good idea to make sure you are covered  against hurricanes  so you’re protected from water damage and structural damage caused by tropical storms and hurricanes.

Your property’s risk of damage from a hurricane in Florida is elevated. Unfortunately, hurricanes do happen, and if the past has taught us anything, it’s to be prepared.

Am I Covered For Hurricanes?

Living in a hurricane-prone place such as Florida, hurricane coverage is something that you should definitely factor into your insurance plan. What many people do not realize is that most traditional homeowners insurance policies do not cover hurricane damages. Different insurance companies have different rules on what is and isn’t covered when it comes to big storms, so you will most likely need a combination of homeowner’s, flood, and possibly windstorm insurance to ensure that you are fully covered during the event of a hurricane or other large storm. 

 It is important to know what degree of insurance you need based on your personal living situation. Hurricane coverage, to some degree, is required in the state of Florida for people who own a mortgage on houses or condos, and that includes landlords as well. When it comes to condos in the state of Florida, you can either have an all-in policy or a walls-in policy. With an all-in policy, the master policy will cover the exterior and interior of each unit, leaving the resident to only cover personal belongings and certain appliances. A walls-in policy, however, leaves the resident to cover everything from the walls to the inside of their unit. 

What Does Hurricane Coverage Include?

While every insurance company has its own standards for what is covered under their hurricane insurance policy, most cover your house and surrounding structures as well as your personal belongings. Hurricane insurance can cover all sorts of damages, including those from heavy winds, flooding, storm surge, heavy rainfall, and more. It is important to understand that hurricane insurance does not always cover storm surge damage, unless it only happened due to hurricane damage. In certain cases, it can be questionable whether the damages were caused due to wind, flooding, heavy rainfall, or other circumstances, which is why it is important to have insurance that covers all those things.

Goodland & Swank wants to make sure you are prepared for any situation and that everything you care about is covered, including your home, personal property, car, and more.
