Looking for new home insurance providers

[Steve S.]

ive been with Travelers for several years on one of my rentals.  Obviously with this insane inflation things have gotten very expensive.  my insurance went from $1200 to $2400 to $3800 in 3 years.

Doing a shop this weekend.  Anyone have any recommended providers in Texas that you've worked with that are good quality?

Also, with them i had a "landlord policy" which i would think is generally less expensive as the tenant has insurance as well and i have a separate umbrella policy with GEICO.  

Is a "landlord policy" recommended?

Landlord policy's have gone way up because most carriers are no longer writing landlord policy's in Texas because of the billions of pay out due to hail storms. https://www.restoremastersllc.com/hail-damage-statistics-in-...

So, supply and demand of course push's up prices.
