Perhaps he’s subtly bragging on an $800,000 house with a 5% deductible?

I’m not sure how you could live in Louisiana and not know your hurricane deductible.

When i built my house, they were trying to put a 10K hurricane deductible..I went with a different insurance company for only 1500. State Farm is a RIP off

State Farm Hurricane Deductible


A few years ago my State Farm agent called me with an option to pay about a $1000 one time fee to keep my hurricane deductible at 2%. If I declined to pay then it would go to 5% for hurricanes. I paid the fee and kept it at 2%.

Well your post is factually inaccurate. A hurricane deductible can be chosen or you can have an all peril deductible. 1% and 2% is standard amongst pretty much all companies. Why would people not look at their policy to see the deductible THEY selected.

I’m fine with a 10k deductible if it saves on my premium.

State Farm has the deductible clearly stated on their policies. But, many do not read them.

Thought that was every insurance company post Katrina. I don’t have state farm or Allstate and I’ve always had a 5% hurricane deductible

Well God bless any of you who lost your homes or have damage from the hurricane. It sucks. I lost everything in the 2016 flood and of course didn't have flood insurance. Prayers to all of you.

I thought Louisiana just passed tort reform so that insurance companies had more money and had to lower deductibles and premiums.
