Citizens Property Insurance Reviews

Citizens Property Insurance is a non-profit company that was created by the Florida Legislature. It only offers policies to personal and commercial customers who are not able to obtain property insurance through a private company. Specifically, Citizens can only write a new policy if the customer is not eligible to obtain coverage via a private insurer, or the premiums charged by private insurers (approved by the State of Florida) are higher than 15% when compared to the current premiums offered by Citizens. Because of the somewhat complicated eligibility requirements, only agents licensed to work with Citizens can approve/purchase new policies. The guide below provides a general overview of how to find an agent, as well as how to determine if your property is eligible for a wind-only policy.
