  • San Diego based insurance broker Kiyoma Yoshizumi says his office has been inundated with phone calls from new clients for weeks. Thousands of San Diego County homeowners are seeing their homeowner’s insurance bill skyrocket.
    “We are getting about 2-5 new phone calls a day from new clients, basically saying my premium went up 3-5 times last year can you find me anything better or I am being non-renewed by my current insurance company,” Yoshizumi told CBS 8’s Heather Myers.

    My homeowner's insurance in Florida was $2,500 annually and now it's $10,000. The increase is just ridiculous. It's either pay it or just wing it; hopefully there's no hurricane that will destroy the property. I'm thinking about selling my Florida property and just stay in California.

    Don't think for a second that insurance companies aren't going to try and mitigate their payout losses by increasing insurance. Lenders will probably also require fire insurance the way that they require flood insurance if you're in a flood zone

    Bottom line insurance companies want more profits. Most people pay house insurance for many years and never file a claim. It's the same for car insurance it is just greed.

    Stationed at RTC/NTC in the early 80's@ 18yrs old. First time in California and I knew I wanted to live forever in San Diego/Point Loma/etc. Fast forward to now; never got a chance to go back after serving, settled, married, bought on the East Coast. I look back and all I can think of is ... God sure was looking out for me. I still want to go back and see it (weather), but years ago I knew CA was not the place for me financially. Things couldn't have worked out any better now that I'm headed into the 60's.

    The insurance companies are dropping their customers in areas where there is a risk of wild fires.
    To mitigate the loss of revenue due to the non- renewal of customers in those high risk areas the insurance companies are raising premium for everyone else even though in many areas there is no risk of wild fires.
    It is a win win situation for the insurance companies going forward because there is going to lot less risks for these companies and whole lot more profits due to high premiums.

      I think they are using government data, that actually appears to be empirically based, and using it to price risks.egis.fire.ca.gov/FHSZ/ It's the cost of building in CA, with all of the regulations, fees, and delays, plus the increase in building costs (mat'l and labor) that make h/o insurance costs rather shocking.

      The homeless crisis in California is largely due to mentally illness and drugs, not housing costs. Most of the homeless are not center from California either. You will see many of them either suit cases. They get sent here on a grey hound bus from cold states.
