I was surprised to find out that State Farm considers a duplex residential but a triplex and up commercial thus increasing the premium by 50% in my experience.

Is this common amongst all insurers?

    I'm currently insured with State Farm and have had this discussion on how many units are considered commercial. My agent has told me that 5 or above is commercial. Also they will not insure a commercial property.

    They may have called I an Apartment policy. The rate jumped 50 percent was for a triplex vs a duplex.

    Property is in georgia.
