Frequently Asked Questions

What if I live in a flood-prone or storm-prone area?

If you live in a flood-prone or storm-prone area in Pennsylvania, it’s essential to have the right coverage to protect your home. Standard homeowners insurance typically does not cover flood damage, so I recommend looking into a separate flood insurance policy through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) or a private insurer. Given Pennsylvania’s history of severe storms, including heavy snow, wind, and occasional tornadoes, it’s also important to ensure your policy includes adequate coverage for wind and storm-related damage.

If you’ve filed home insurance claims in the past, it may impact your rates and eligibility for coverage. Insurance companies consider your claims history when determining premiums, as multiple claims can indicate a higher risk. However, every situation is unique, and at Allstate, we work to find the best coverage options for your needs. I can review your history and help you explore discounts or policy adjustments to keep your coverage affordable and effective.

Pennsylvania law does not require homeowners to carry insurance. However, if you have a mortgage, your lender will almost always require you to have a homeowners insurance policy to protect their investment. Even if it’s not required, having the right coverage is crucial for protecting your home from risks like fire, storms, theft, and liability. I can help you find a policy that fits your needs and budget, ensuring you have peace of mind.

Some insurance companies are reducing coverage or leaving certain areas of Pennsylvania due to increased risks from severe weather, rising claims costs, and regulatory challenges. Flooding, windstorms, and winter damage have led to higher claim payouts, making it more challenging for some insurers to maintain profitability. However, Allstate remains committed to helping Pennsylvania homeowners find reliable and affordable coverage. I can work with you to ensure you have the protection you need, even in higher-risk areas. Let’s discuss your options and find the right solution for your home.
