Tile roof vs Standing metal seam roof vs exotic metal roof - which is cheapest? Strongest? Trying to decide. Do any add value to a home? Help with insurance costs?

From my property work, tile roofs have a very long life span. I don’t know how that affects insurance. I know a lot of carriers consider shingle roofs to have a 15-20 year lifespan in Florida no matter what they’re rated for. I’d ask your insurance company what they’re policies are. If you go tile and they say yes we consider that good for 30-50 years then by all means go tile.

I doubt the type of roof will frankly add value to the home.

Standing seam roof. 1000%. As someone who did a lot of Hurricane Michael work in the panhandle I can tell you the only houses I saw that didn’t have their roofs ripped off after a category 5 storm were standing seam metal roofs

And does your answer change if the "extra" person is adverse to the deponent? For instance, a corporate plaintiff having two reps at the defendant's deposition.
