Everyone is getting hit like this so good luck. Be careful shopping your policy at the same company - check with your agent first - sometimes that can cancel your current policy and the new offer is higher. Depends on the terms in your policy.
I work in insurance 20% increase is the minimum. Lucky you don’t live in California, Florida, or parts of Texas. We pulled out, cancelled people, or increased rates significantly. Why should someone in Illinois subsidize the high risk in Florida? Thats how we kept it to only 20%. I’d happily call out greedy corporations, but the 20% makes sense when you figure the cost of services, parts, materials are up at least 30% in the past couple years. Your premiums go into bonds. The insurance companies lost billions on bonds with the interest rate increases. I see all the numbers internally. Insurance companies were either going out of business or raising rates by at least 20%. They didn’t cause the inflation, or interest rate hikes. I’m not an agent so I can’t answer your umbrella question.
