🚨 Condos Are Facing Soaring Insurance Costs🚨 Last year, Highland Park Community Association in Mission Viejo, CA, was shocked by an insurance quote of over $170,000—more than four times what they paid in 2022. Wildfire risks and natural disasters are driving up costs, forcing the board to raise residents' dues by 20% to $474 a month. This issue is widespread. Condo dues nationwide have risen 20% since 2022, making homeownership less affordable. Many communities, especially in disaster-prone areas, are struggling with similar hikes. How is your community handling rising insurance costs? Share your experiences below! #InsuranceCrisis #Homeownership #CondoLiving #PropertyInsurance #RealEstate

Last week, our Chief Executive of RAA Insurance Tara Page met with Assistant Treasurer Stephen Jones, Senator Murray Watt and other Members of Parliament in Canberra – an initiative of the Insurance Council of Australia.   The topic in question? How can the Insurance industry and Government work together to help keep insurance affordable for Australians? We know it’s a challenging time for the insurance industry with supply chain pressures, inflation, reinsurance costs, skills shortages and severe weather events all taking their toll on costs around the country. While not just an RAA ‘problem’, it’s affecting our members and South Australians – and we want to be part of the solution.   So, we’re proud to be part of discussions with Government around building more resilient homes and even implementing natural disaster mitigation measures. It’s all about reducing risk, and in turn reducing premium pressure.

#Thinking beyond traditional insurance African insurers must definitely abandon the traditional form of insurance so that they can become true service providers capable of providing policyholders with greater security and comfort in relation to future and inevitable risks. In other geographies, insurance no longer just refers to risk coverage, it encompasses and integrates all global and downstream services. A quick example of funeral insurance, which in several Latin American countries covers all expenses related to the funeral, including extra services provided by funeral agencies. In fact, what people are looking for is peace of mind when an accident occurs.

Here are some tips Jason Killings, President of Operations at Borbolla Insurance Agencies, believes you should consider when purchasing business insurance. 1. Speak directly with your insurance agent to determine what forms of coverage are appropriate for your company, and afterward compare terms and costs to obtain the best offer for you. The four stages of purchasing business insurance are to analyze your risks, identify a reliable licensed broker, shop wisely, and reassess every year. 2. The greater the deductible you accept to pay, the smaller the premium. You are, however, taking a financial risk by agreeing to a large deductible. As a consequence, before going shopping, consider your own risks. 3. It is just as vital to locate a comprehensive insurance agent as it is to find a competent lawyer or accountant. Always seek someone who has a license. The insurance sector is regulated by state governments, and insurance agents are licensed, therefore several states maintain a registry of licensed agents. 4. It may be enticing to choose the cheapest insurance available to save money on your premiums, but this may end up costing you more over the long term. There is a reason cheaper insurance is marketed that way. They may provide extremely minimal coverage, leaving you exposed to ordinary hazards. These might also be provided by an insurance company with suspicious business practices, such as slow claim processing times or unexpected rate increases. Ultimately, purchasing extensive business insurance will provide you with complete peace of mind, knowing that you can rely on it if something unexpected occurs.
