Many Florida homeowners with Citizens policies wonder whether they should move to a private insurer. The honest answer is that it depends on the offer, and comparing carefully is the only way to know.
Citizens is designed as a last resort, and its coverage options can be more limited than private policies. Private carriers may offer broader coverage, and in some cases a competitive price. If your home no longer needs a last-resort insurer, you may have better options.
A private offer is not automatically better. It may carry a higher premium, different deductibles, or narrower terms. Always compare the full policy, not just the headline price.
This is a decision worth a second opinion. A licensed agent can lay the options next to each other so the trade-offs are clear. Learn more about leaving Citizens or request a quote.
