Neighborly & Friendly Suggestions 💚:

If you see or hear someone in The Villages selling you (soliciting you) by making you sign something to inspect your roof or on the idea that they can attain your roof replacement based on an insurance claim when it’s not claimable - PLEASE tell them to leave! This is still happening in portions of the Villages communities folks and all of us have a voice. Take a stand for what is right and wrong. We have @SkylightRoofingVillages:

“An avalanche of lawsuits fueled by roofing scams from 2017-2023 has plunged Florida into a property insurance crisis that has forced two-dozen companies to shut their doors, drop customers, raise rates or flee the state. It’s a slow-motion collapse that lawmakers have known about for years but have failed to fix unfortunately.

The mess has made it harder for people to protect their homes in a state that is frequently battered by high winds, hard rains, heavy barometric activity and is increasingly vulnerable to climate change. Things could get worse if the state is hit by a major hurricane into 2025, where we will find these issues surmounting.

As most of us know, the scam (Insurance scams) works like this:

Contractors knock on doors offering to inspect homeowners’ roofs for storm damage. They say they can help get a roof replacement covered by insurance, and they persuade the homeowners to sign away their rights to file the claims themselves. The contractors then file fraudulent damage claims, and when the insurance companies balk, the contractors sue. The insurance companies usually settle the disputed claims for many times more than the original claim. Most of that money goes to the contractors’ lawyers in the form of a “contingency fee multiplier.” Some lawyers file hundreds of such lawsuits a year. You will now (personally) be liable for attorneys fees into 2025 based on legislative criteria.

The homeowner may feel like they get a free roof (minus deductible), but everyone will pay for it through increased rates for years to come.

Ultimately, the victim is every Floridian who is buying their neighbors’ roof and those folding under the pressure or who are being seduced will also be red flagged on ILB (FL Insurance Risk Liability Profile) in 2024-2025.”

This ad seems like a note from the past. The State of Florida passed a law that removes that scam by roofers. Roofers can no longer go directly to the insurance company to negotiate the status of your roof. You can use roofer reports to support "Your Claim". But it is between you and the Insurance company.

Poster did cite parts of the NEW law. Worst part about this is the fact that the roofer(s) who do this will charge and get more money for the roof than what a legitimate roofer will charge. Neighbor did this years ago and I asked her if she had other bids and told me NO.
