Writing to us
What the home insurance estimator does: 9 tools
- Home insurance estimator pick a state, set the rebuild cost and deductible by typing or by tapping the walls, door, window, roof and ground of a drawn house, see the price built step by step, check a quote you were given against it, and keep five versions side by side.
- State averages on a map the 2023 NAIC average premium for all 50 states and DC, in a sortable table with ranks and a state-to-state difference.
- Eleven countries compared the yearly premium in 11 countries on a world map, each marked as official, worked out from official totals or a comparison-site average.
- Deductible break-even how much a higher deductible saves, how many claim-free years it takes to pay back, and what a percentage hurricane deductible costs in dollars.
- NFIP flood premium path how a discounted flood policy climbs toward its full-risk price under the 18% yearly cap, and the gap above the federal limits.
- Wind mitigation saving (Florida) what a wind mitigation inspection could take off the hurricane part of a Florida premium.
- My Safe Florida Home grant check the 2026 conditions one by one, how the two-for-one match and $10,000 cap split the cost, your place in the statute's priority order and how fast your share pays back.
- Roof age and four-point rules (Florida) when an insurer can ask about roof age, when Citizens wants a four-point or roof form, and the cap on a separate roof deductible.
- New roof price and claim payout price a shingle or metal roof from your region, roof area and slope, then see what a storm claim pays on a replacement-cost or actual-cash-value policy.

A message we can act on fast
Name the page and the number or rule that looks off; a link to the regulator table or statute with the correct version helps most. A state average that has been replaced, a Florida rule changed in the latest session, or a calculator giving an odd answer on your phone are all welcome.
Beyond what we do
We can't quote a premium, read your policy, argue a claim or ring your insurer. For disputes with an insurer, your state's insurance department runs a free consumer line.
Details to keep back
Policy and claim numbers, your street address, Social Security number, bank details and photos of documents. Correcting a page never needs them.
How soon you hear back
Usually within a week.
