Flood insurance for renters in Florida — protecting contents your landlord won't.

Most of the confusion around "What a standard Florida renters policy excludes" comes from advice written for other states. In the Florida flood market, the math is different. The carriers worth quoting on this right now are NFIP through Wright and private writers like Neptune, TypTap and Zurich. Each one weights flood zone, elevation certificate, building diagram and post-FIRM date differently, which is why a single-carrier captive agent can't tell you whether you're priced fairly — they only see one ranking.

In practice we pull elevation certificate and prior loss history, run it against NFIP through Wright and private writers like Neptune, TypTap and Zurich, and rank the result by total cost — not just the headline premium. The cheapest sticker isn't always the cheapest renewal once the surcharges roll in at month 13. The fastest path is a 5-minute call where we read elevation certificate and prior loss history together and tell you which carriers in today's market would write you cheaper — and which would decline.
