Finding mobile home insurance in Florida

As a homeowner in Florida, you know insurance is important. You’ve probably seen firsthand the destruction a hurricane can cause an entire community. Protecting your mobile home is a must.

Historically, mobile homeowners in Florida have been overlooked. Only a handful of insurers offer mobile home coverage, and when they do, the price is typically steep.

We’re changing that. We developed our own mobile home insurance for Floridians to be the best on the market. We designed our coverage to reflect your home’s actual risks, not a general assessment for the entire state. The result?

The average homeowner who switches to Kin saves $500 a year (or more!). Our average premium for mobile home insurance in Florida is $894 a year.

What does Florida mobile home insurance cover?

Mobile home insurance can cover more than just your home. A typical policy – without added coverages – usually covers:

Your dwelling.
Your belongings, like your clothing, furniture, appliances, and more.
Other structures on your property, like your garage, fence, shed, etc.
Loss of use expenses when a covered claim forces you to temporarily relocate.
Personal liability to help pay for legal expenses when you accidentally damage someone’s property.
Medical expense payments to help pay for small injuries guests experience on your property.

The types of damage your policy covers depends on your insurer. Our policies cover all risks except for those explicitly excluded by the policy. That means your mobile home has coverage for damage or losses caused by:

Fire
Vandalism
Wind
Hurricane and named-storm wind
Theft
And more

Can I get insurance for older mobile homes?

Unfortunately, we can't offer coverage for mobile homes built prior to 1976. Older mobile homes, those built prior to 1976, may have a difficult time getting insured because they don’t adhere to the HUD Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards. Homes built after 1976 are technically called manufactured homes, and they adhere to this federal building code that makes them safer and more durable.

And remember, you can adjust both your standard deductible and your hurricane deductible for extra savings, too. Usually, the higher your deductible, the lower your premium – but make sure you don’t choose a deductible so high it prevents you from using your coverage when you need it.

Do you need mobile home insurance in Florida?

Florida doesn’t legally require homeowners to have home insurance, but your lender might. If your home is in a mobile home community or park, your landlord may require you to have mobile home insurance, too.

Even if you outright own your home and place it on private property, the extreme weather in Florida makes coverage a smart investment regardless. You never know when disaster will strike, and your coverage offers you the support to rebuild and recover.

Florida mobile home insurance quotes

While mobile home insurance in Florida has a reputation for being unaffordable, remember that the insurer makes all the difference. While you shop around, look for a provider that offers:

Online quotes. Kin provides home insurance quotes in minutes, all online. We have a team of licensed insurance experts ready to help if you want personal guidance, too.
Replacement cost coverage for the dwelling. Because manufactured homes depreciate in value quickly, it’s smart to have replacement cost coverage that can pay for what it would cost to replace your home, despite its depreciation, with a new, similar home. Kin can offer replacement cost coverage for mobile homes built after 1997.
