The start of a new year is the perfect time to reassess your insurance strategy. Whether you’re renewing your policies in Florida or planning for life changes, the following tips can help you start 2026 with confidence.
1. Review Your Coverage for Current Risks
Life changes — marriage, children, home improvements, new vehicles — can all influence your coverage needs. A yearly review helps you:
- Increase liability limits if your assets have grown.
- Add or update coverages like flood, umbrella, or life insurance.
- Confirm existing policies match current rebuilding values.

2. Lock in Discounts Before Renewals
Some common ways Floridians can lower premiums include:
- Bundling policies like home and auto with the same carrier.
- Installing safety features in your home or car.
- Keeping a clean driving record to qualify for auto discounts.
Ask our team for a customized discount analysis as part of your policy review — we help you capture every savings opportunity.
3. Re-Evaluate Deductibles Based on Your Budget
Higher deductibles can lower premiums, but they mean more out-of-pocket cost at claim time. Balancing this with your emergency savings is key — our advisors can help you choose wisely.
4. Don’t Neglect Specialty Coverages
Especially in Florida, traditional policies may not cover:
- Flood damage (which is not included in standard homeowners coverage).
- Short-term rental property exposures.
- Business liabilities tied to LLC-owned assets.
We work with carriers who offer tailored solutions for these niche needs. Singh Insurance and Financial Services
