Standard homeowners policies exclude all earthquake damage, and Orange County faces significant seismic risk from fault lines that could produce a magnitude 7.4 quake. While earthquake insurance comes with high deductibles (typically 10-20% of dwelling coverage) and costs $800-$5,000 annually, it's the only way to protect yourself from potentially catastrophic repair costs. If you couldn't afford to rebuild your home out of pocket, earthquake coverage is worth serious consideration.
California's insurance market has been in crisis since 2022 due to rising wildfire and natural disaster risks, increasing construction costs, and regulatory constraints on how quickly insurers can raise rates. At least seven of the state's 12 largest insurers have stopped writing new policies or left the market entirely. Major insurers like State Farm and Farmers raised rates by 15-20% in 2024, and some homeowners in high-risk areas have seen premiums multiply five to eight times.
The California FAIR Plan is a last-resort insurance option for homeowners who can't get coverage from traditional insurers, typically due to high wildfire or natural disaster risk. It provides basic property coverage but comes with higher costs, lower coverage limits, and less comprehensive protection than standard policies. If your insurer drops you or refuses to renew your policy, the FAIR Plan ensures you can still get some coverage, though it's designed to be a temporary solution while you work to make your home more insurable.
Take advantage of California's Safer from Wildfires regulation by implementing fire mitigation measures like clearing brush around your home, installing Class A fire-resistant roofing, using ember-resistant vents, and creating defensible space. These improvements can qualify you for insurance discounts and may make you eligible for the state's Safe Homes grant program. Additionally, shop around annually for coverage, increase your deductible if you can afford it, and consider bundling home and auto insurance with the same carrier.
Your dwelling coverage should reflect the cost to completely rebuild your home at today's construction prices, not your home's market value or what you paid for it. With construction costs rising significantly, many homeowners are underinsured even if they haven't changed their coverage recently. Review your policy annually and consider getting a replacement cost estimate from a contractor or appraiser to ensure your coverage amount is adequate.
Hillside properties can face additional insurance challenges due to increased risks from earthquakes (potential for landslides or foundation issues) and wildfires (elevation and brush proximity). Some insurers charge higher premiums for hillside homes or may be more reluctant to write policies for them. However, newer hillside construction in Laguna Hills typically meets strict building codes that can help offset these concerns. If you're buying a hillside property, factor in potentially higher insurance costs and consider getting quotes before finalizing your purchase.
