Gulf Coast Educators Insurance Offers Online Guide for Wind Mitigation

Naples, FL, May 29, 2015 --(PR.com)-- According to Florida Statute 627.0629, all Florida insurance companies must offer discounts, credits, or rate differentials to consumers if the home meets specific criteria for wind mitigation. Many consumers are unaware that this discount is available since it is not required in order to obtain a Florida homeowners insurance policy. A wind mitigation inspection can save a consumer money on homeowners insurance.

Gulf Coast Educators Insurance has created an online guide on how to save money on homeowners insurance with a wind mitigation inspection. Ron DeFreitas, Owner/Agent of Gulf Coast Educators Insurance states, “Having your home inspected by a certified wind mitigation inspector can help you to save money. Our online guide lists various features on a home that can help lower the cost of your homeowners insurance. There are different types of features that can help make your home safer in the event of a high wind situation.”

Different categories of safety features are looked for on a home during a wind mitigation inspection. A few of those categories include: roof geometry, opening protection, and a secondary water barrier. DeFreitas adds, “Our online wind mitigation guide covers the different types of features that can lower the cost of your home owner’s insurance. For more information, on what features are covered, please visit the guide at: http://www.propertyandhomeinsuranceflorida.com/wind-mitigation/
You need not have all of the features in order to obtain a discount. Each feature is independent of the others and various discounts are given for each feature.”
