Woodstock, United States - November 13, 2023 /PressCable/ —

The new report highlights inflation as a key factor contributing to rising policy costs. This led to many Georgia home insurance quotes being $100 more expensive than the national average last year, according to research conducted by the company.

Home insurance protection is not legally mandatory in Georgia, yet remains a critical consideration for homeowners. White Oak Insurance Services points out that most mortgage providers will decline financing without a policy in place, making coverage near-obligatory for borrowers.

Home insurance protects homeowners against losses and damages to their property and possessions due to issues like fires, storms, water damage, and theft. Policies typically cover the structure, personal property, loss of use, personal liability, and medical payments.

The company notes that along with the rising cost of building materials, recent high inflation has led to contractor work becoming considerably more expensive. The home improvement industry is also experiencing a shortage of skilled labor, with half a million unfilled construction roles nationwide last year according to the Associated Builders and Contractors - driving costs higher for repairs and rebuilds covered by insurance policies.

The rise in major natural disasters over the past year has also put pressure on home insurance pricing, according to White Oak Insurance Services. There were 18 separate billion-dollar weather and climate disaster events in 2022 that led to considerable insured losses.

Leveraging its established relationships with over 30 prominent insurance carriers, White Oak Insurance Services pairs clients with the provider and policy that best fits their property, lifestyle, and budget.

They can also offer bundled packages for home, life, health, travel, and auto insurance. Bundling multiple policies with the same provider can lead to savings of up to 20%.

A spokesperson states: "You can talk to us about how we can help you get the best the best rates in Georgia. You'll be able to better understand the factors that affect your insurance, so you can make informed decisions when choosing your policy and provider."
