Hartford Homeowners Insurance - Increase in Property Taxes

Some landlords gave up. Charles Adams of Citrus Park owned two rental homes and sold both of them as tax bills became too much. He sold a 1,300-square-foot rental home in Ballast Point at a time when neighbors were building enormous new homes, driving up his property tax bill at a $1,000-a-year clip. He waited until after the death of a longtime tenant to sell an 800-square-foot home in Palm River last year.

High Premium in Insurance - Why?

Homeowners who find their insurance policy isn’t covering losses sufficiently should take the time to review and upgrade their policies, Pachla said. Riders to cover the unexpected, like water backup or food spoilage, can be obtained at a relatively low cost. Travelers Insurance offers $5,000 of water backup coverage for $25 a year, for instance.
Higher premiums and the difficulty of obtaining insurance in certain areas only add to residents' worries about a growing property-tax problem. If they have to continually pay higher premiums to cover the higher values of their reassessed homes, many residents interviewed last week said it will only be harder for middle class families to pay to maintain a home in shore communities.
