Los Angeles, California Home Insurance
Why do you pay the homeowner insurance rates you do? Take a look at your community, as location is often an important determining factor in your policy cost. A 1997 study of homeowner claims found that several metropolitan areas, including Los Angeles, had more claims than the national average–115 per 1000 insured homes, compared with 100 nationally. This factor helps account for a 42% increase in homeowner insurance policies over other areas.
With these figures in mind, you can take other measures to save money on your premiums. Retrofit your home before you seek earthquake insurance. A properly retrofitted building is almost 1000% percent more resistant to earthquakes than one that is not retrofitted. And since Southern California is at risk from wildfires, update your policy with your home’s most current value—that way your reimbursement won’t come up short if you need to file a claim.
