Home insurance rising for a 5th straight year isn’t just “inflation.” It’s rebuild costs + extreme weather losses + pricier reinsurance. Your renewal letter is a risk report—read it like one.
PSA: Market value ≠ rebuild cost. If your coverage limit hasn’t been updated, you may be underinsured even while paying more. Ask for a rebuild estimate review at renewal.
