TRUE STORY! Just last week I helped find my buyers a beautiful waterfront home on Treasure Island this past week for $2,400,000. I have been seeing home insurance premiums somewhat stabilize the last 6 months but never thought we could see rates dropping.

When I saw the HOME INSURANCE quote, I couldn't believe it at first, the actual numbers were $2,549 a year for hazard and $840 for flood. What was amazing was this home is right on the water in a flood zone.  I knew the flood would be low since the home sets up 14 ft, but $840 was pretty amazing.  For the hazard policy in that area to be that low was pretty amazing as well considering the location, square footage with a boat slip and over 10 years old.

Looked into it a little more.
