Anyone get their new premium renewals yet? I just recieved mine from Vault Insurance and it more than doubled again from last year. This comes on the heels of it doubling last year.

I may just pay off the mortgage and self insure because this new renewal amount is outrageously insane.

Mine jumped up another $12,406 from last year’s premium. $27k this year is absurd.

When I bought the house in 2019 my premium was $4900 a year.

Louisiana isn’t a desirable place to insure for a multitude of reasons

IYKYK


We got the renewal for the camp and it almost doubled. We decided about an hour later to self-insure. It wasn't that difficult of a decision mainly because it is not our primary. I had never considered taking on the risk myself but at this point it makes sense.

4 years ago our premium was 2200.

It’s now 4900 after a 1700 dollar increase this year.

Edit:Progressive insurance and I still have a 2500 deductible for hurricanes

Can you explain what Vault does for “high net worth” people that a regular insurance company does not? I’m genuinely curious. Is it for homes in excess of a few million?

Serious question, what is stopping insurance companies from charging everyone a billion dollars?

They specialize with upper limits and more carve out niche add ons.

If you're in Louisiana, the reason for the price increase is the obvious, of course, higher risk due to hurricanes for home insurance. The other reason is state regulations, they won't allow insurance companies to just pull out of the state, but hey they do allow rate revisions and approve them.

State regulators are to blame as much as insurance companies, at least insurance companies have a reason to leave an unprofitable market. The state makes them stay. This is the result.

States like NC, CA, NY, etc etc etc won't approve rate increases if they sense you're trying to pull out of the state.

I don't know if it has changed but a couple of years ago it was $3m on houses. To an extent they let you write the policy and they will cover you for a cost. Many of the things they cover like art/watch/jewelry collections and exotic cars are generally things that most insurance companies really don't write "good" policies for and things like modified exotics most won't consider a policy that covers the mods. They are one of the companies that will cover all these assets without having to have multiple insurance companies cover. So it allows you to bundle a custom policy with significant umbrella coverage you simply can't get from the mainstream insurers and all under one roof.
