If insurance providers were not legally bound to pay out for plans, and if failure to pay wouldn’t see customers flee, they never would.
Nowhere is safe from climate change, but insurers will continue to sap up as much money as they can, and pay out as little as they can, before they finally shut down and leave the government to pick up the mess. They’ll charge premiums for decades, and then right as the disasters those premiums are supposed to cover folks for start to ramp up, they’ll close up shop and laugh their way to the bank.
Private insurance is a cancer that should be cut out.
Private ownership of capital altogether, but yeah.
Clearly the market is telling you it’s time to leave that area. I would not move into an area if they would not ensure me in the area and if I lived there before I would be moving out.
That becomes difficult when their homes are now uninsurable. If they can’t find a
suckerbuyer to take it off their hands for enough that they can afford one elsewhere, they’re stuck. The govt absolutely needs to step in. If only to save money on disaster relief efforts in future.
