brian0123 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I am currently buying a 1950's home in the loop... and while getting everything setup for my lender, I was shocked to find out from my insurance agent (who I've been with forever) that they will not insure the property because "more than 50% of the walls are wood instead of brick/masonry/vinyl siding". Have you ever heard of this before? Anyone have recommendations on who I should contact that a wooden house won't be a problem? Surely people in West U, South Braeswood, Heights, Montrose, etc. find insurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedScare Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I use USAA. Never been a problem, though I know that they do not like wood siding residences. Living in a city with a fire department, and having smoke detectors helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Try Amica. We switched to them after another company dropped us, and we spent a couple of years in the last resort pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
