Policy

Coverage limits

How much you opt for dwelling coverage and any extra coverage add-ons is directly tied to your insurance premiums. Higher coverage limits and more specialized coverage add-ons equals higher rates. 

Policy

Deductible

Policy deductibles are the amount you pay out of pocket for every claim you file before your insurance company kicks in to cover the rest. You can typically choose a deductible between  $500 and $2,000. Low-deductible policies spell higher premiums, and vice versa.

Policy

Discounts you qualify for

Homeowners insurance companies offer discounted rates for everything from bundling your home and auto policies, to working in a certain profession (like for educators or civil servants), to paying your premiums up front for the year.

Rising inflation

Your home’s dwelling coverage limit is based on the cost to rebuild, including the cost of lumber, roofing, and other raw materials. Ongoing supply chain issues have pushed the price of construction materials up roughly 36% since the start of the pandemic, according to the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB). This has caused both home prices and insurance costs to skyrocket. 

Severe natural disasters

Climate change has increased both the length and severity of the hurricane and wildfire seasons in the U.S., causing many insurance companies to increase rates or stop offering coverage in high-risk areas altogether. When there’s fewer companies doing business in a particular area, the ones left are forced to establish stricter underwriting rules and increase rates on new and existing customers.

Record catastrophe losses

There were 97 natural disasters resulting in $92 billion in insured losses in 2021, according to the Insurance Information Institute (III). This is up from 92 events totaling $74 billion in losses in 2020. As a result, insurers have had to increase rates to account for higher reconstruction costs in affected areas, and to make up for the record losses.

Labor shortages

Rising rebuild costs are in part due to the labor shortage currently plaguing the construction industry. A recent NAHB survey found that 76% of builders reported a labor shortage in October 2021, an all-time record and up from the previous peak of 65% in 2018. This shortage has collided with a heightened rebuild demand in recent years due to increased natural disasters, sending insurance premiums skyward.

Lawsuits

In 2021, there were over 116,000 lawsuits filed against home insurance companies in Florida over fraudulent roof repair claims. The losses stemming from these lawsuits have crippled the insurance industry in Florida, forcing many providers to increase rates significantly. 

Average car insurance rates by city

The city with the most expensive car insurance prices is Detroit, where coverage costs $446 per month, or $5,357 per year — that’s $3,705 more each year than the national average rate. New York City, New Orleans, Miami, and Tampa follow Detroit as the most expensive cities for car insurance.
