Any recommendations for homeowners insurance?
I'm having a hard time locating an insurer willing to underwrite a policy for a house my partner and I are set to close on in a few weeks.
I've tried Liberty Mutual, Amica, Arbella, and a few other local sources. All have said it does not meet their underwriting standards.
I haven't been given any specific explanations as to why. Some don't like the age of the roof (estimated 20 years since re-shingled). Can this alone be a deal breaker?
Any help or recommendations would be appreciated.
Thanks
