Homeowners Insurance Crisis Course
The industry is shifting. Are you prepared? The United States housing market is undergoing a tremendous transformation. It’s no longer just about interest rates; it’s about the “Insurability Crisis.” Builders are completing developments only to find that homeowners cannot afford the premiums or worse, cannot find coverage at all. Led by industry expert Treacy Duerfeldt, this course provides a deep dive into the mechanics of this volatility. We move beyond the surface to explore how premiums are actually rated, how hazard data is reshaping markets, and why traditional “new home discounts” are failing to reflect true resiliency. What You Will Learn: The Affordability Gap: Why homeowners insurance is becoming the primary barrier to homeownership and how it impacts builder margins. Premium Mechanics: The science behind rating methods and the difference between admitted companies and the “Market of Last Resort.” Hazard & Disaster Data: How to decode the maps insurers use to price risk or abandon entire states. The FAIR Plan Strategy: Navigating state-mandated plans when the traditional market pulls out. Building for Resiliency: Why modern building codes are the key to long-term insurability and market competition. Who Is This For?
Production Builders: Protect your developments by ensuring your buyers can actually secure coverage. Insurance Agents: Gain the “insider” data needed to advise clients in high-risk or hardening markets. Construction Professionals: Understand the economic link between building codes and insurance costs. Equip yourself with data-driven strategies to stay resilient.
