Personal Umbrella Insurance for Taylor Creek Households
Add $1M–$10M of liability protection above your auto and home/condo/renters policies. We set the right underlying limits for Florida, coordinate with your landlord or marina needs.
Why Taylor Creek Residents Choose Umbrella Coverage
Hurricanes, flooding, boating activities, and coastal roadways increase the chance of large liability claims. If a judgment exceeds the limits on your auto or homeowners policy, an umbrella helps protect savings, home equity, and future income.
We’ll sync your base policies with carrier requirements, then add an umbrella limit that fits your household, drivers, and properties.
Florida Context: Underlying Policies & Landlord Rules
Auto Policy: Minimum Requirements
Florida requires Personal Injury Protection (PIP) of at least $10,000 and Property Damage Liability (PDL) of $10,000. Umbrella carriers typically require higher underlying auto liability—often $100k/$300k or more. If your policy doesn’t meet these, we’ll upgrade your underlying limits to qualify.
Home/Condo/Renters Liability
Most umbrellas require at least $300k personal liability on your homeowners/condo/renters policy. We’ll also look at flood, windstorm, and other exposures that may need scheduled underlying coverage.
Landlords & Business Owners
Florida law requires owners of rental properties to carry liability insurance. Your personal umbrella generally excludes business pursuits; landlords and business owners often need a landlord or commercial umbrella to sit over those policies.
Taylor Creek Considerations
In areas like Taylor Creek, properties near water may require additional flood insurance. We’ll coordinate certificates of insurance when your lender, association, or local authorities ask.
Tip: Keep records for teen drivers’ training, storm shutters, and any pet training—these can help with underwriting.
