There may be some changes in the insurance premiums for the thousands of Florida homeowners who currently enjoy wind mitigation discounts. Rumor has it that a pilot program revealed that most discounted policies are erroneous and costing insurance companies millions. As a result, some homeowners may receive a visit from their insurance company wind mitigation inspector. Insurance companies will be re-inspecting most florida properties in the months to come.

How do you keep your mitigation discounts?

Contact a qualified wind mitigation inspection company to review your property. They will be able to tell you what the insurance company guidelines are and how to prepare your home for a passing grade. Even though a property may have hurricane shutters on all openings, it may not qualify for the shutter discount based on the companies guidelines.

Who should call?

Every homeowner interested in big insurance savings. The discounts are significant for qualified properties. Whether a property has the discount or not, its best to assure yourself that your home is truly protected and qualified for the discounts. Regaining the discounts after they are lost may be more difficult and costly.
