We Understand Insurance Non-Renewal in Homestead
Facing insurance non-renewal in Homestead can be overwhelming. The last thing you need is the stress of a traditional home sale with its repairs, showings, and uncertainty. Whether your property is in Keys Gate, Waterstone, Redland, or any other Homestead neighborhood, we're here to help.
Under Florida Statute 627.7011, an insurer can't refuse to issue or renew a homeowner's policy solely because the roof is under 15 years old. Once a roof turns 15, the insurer can require an inspection at your expense, and if that inspection doesn't show at least 5 years of useful life remaining, a non-renewal notice can follow with no storm, fire, or water damage on the property at all. That's a different problem than our [storm-damage](/sell-house/storm-damage) guide, which covers a roof that's already been hit - this is a roof, or a policy, an insurer simply won't cover going forward, often on an [older house](/sell-house/old-house) that hasn't been reroofed. A financed buyer's lender generally won't fund a purchase without proof of hazard insurance in place, so a non-renewal can stall or kill a traditional sale even with a buyer already under contract. A cash sale needs no buyer-side insurance policy to close.
As local Miami-Dade County investors, we understand the unique challenges Homestead homeowners face. Homestead's housing stock is split by a single event: Hurricane Andrew in 1992 destroyed the overwhelming majority of homes in the city, including nearly every mobile home, and everything rebuilt afterward went up under Miami-Dade's much stricter post-Andrew hurricane code. That leaves a real gap between newer, code-built construction and older or hastily repaired properties that can struggle with insurance and financed buyers. Homestead also remains one of South Florida's few working agricultural areas, with large lots, well/septic systems, and farm-zoned parcels that don't fit a typical suburban listing. When you're dealing with insurance non-renewal, you don't have time to wait for the perfect buyer or make expensive repairs. That's where we come in.
Complete Guide: Selling a Insurance Non-Renewal House in Homestead
Florida Statute 627.7011 sets one clear rule for roof age: an insurer may not refuse to issue or refuse to renew a homeowner's policy insuring a residential structure with a roof less than 15 years old solely because of the roof's age. Once a roof reaches 15 years, the statute shifts the burden - the insurer must allow you to have it inspected by an authorized inspector at your own expense before requiring a replacement as a condition of coverage, and if that inspection shows the roof has 5 or more years of useful life remaining, the insurer still can't refuse to issue or renew solely on age. These roof-age protections apply to homeowners' policies issued or renewed on or after July 1, 2022. What that leaves out is everything the statute doesn't cover: an insurer can still decline to renew for underwriting reasons that have nothing to do with a 15-year threshold, and a homeowner who gets a non-renewal notice is often left comparing the cost of a full reroof against what the house is actually worth to them. Unlike our [storm-damage](/sell-house/storm-damage), [fire-damage](/sell-house/fire-damage), or [water-damage](/sell-house/water-damage) guides, none of which require any damage to have occurred, a non-renewal notice can land on a house that looks fine from the curb - it's the roof's age or the underwriting file, not a claim, that triggered it. That's also common on an [older house](/sell-house/old-house) that was never reroofed after the original construction. A non-renewal notice creates a real problem for a traditional sale even when the house itself is in good shape: a lender generally won't fund a mortgage without proof of hazard insurance on the property, so a buyer who can't get a policy - or whose own insurer won't cover a roof this age - can't close, no matter how much they want the house. A cash sale sidesteps that gate entirely, because there's no buyer-side mortgage and no buyer-side insurance policy required to get to closing. We buy houses facing insurance non-renewal across Miami-Dade, Broward, and [Palm Beach County](/locations/palm-beach).
Challenges Homestead Homeowners Face with Insurance Non-Renewal
Step-by-Step: Selling Your Insurance Non-Renewal House in Homestead
Tell Us What Your Insurer Said
A non-renewal letter, a refusal to issue a new policy, or a roof-inspection demand - we'll help you figure out exactly what stage you're at and how much time the notice actually gives you.
Skip the Reroof-or-Sell Math
We'll walk through what a full reroof would cost against what the house is worth to you today, so you're deciding with real numbers instead of guessing.
Get a Cash Offer
Usually within 24 hours, based on the property's current condition - no repair or reroof required before we'll make an offer.
No Buyer Insurance to Wait On
Because we're not financing the purchase, there's no lender requiring us to bind a hazard insurance policy before closing.
Close Before the Notice Takes Effect
We can often close in as little as 7 days - frequently faster than shopping for a new carrier or scheduling a 15-year roof inspection would take.
We Buy Houses Throughout Homestead
Homestead sits at the southern tip of Miami-Dade County, where suburban South Florida gives way to farmland and the entrances to Everglades and Biscayne National Parks. The city has deep agricultural roots - the surrounding Redland district still grows tropical fruit and vegetables for the whole region - and a long-standing presence from Homestead Air Reserve Base. Hurricane Andrew reshaped Homestead more than any other South Florida city. The 1992 storm destroyed the vast majority of homes here, including nearly all mobile homes, and much of what stands today was rebuilt under the far stricter hurricane building codes adopted afterward. That's good news if your home was fully rebuilt post-Andrew - but many properties were only patched and repaired rather than rebuilt to the new standard, and those are exactly the homes that run into trouble with insurance underwriting and financed buyers today. Alongside that older and agricultural housing stock, Homestead has also grown newer master-planned communities like Keys Gate and Waterstone, where HOA fees, assessments, and association approval requirements can slow a traditional sale in the same way they do in Doral or Kendall. We buy houses throughout Homestead in any condition - pre- and post-Andrew construction, agricultural and large-lot properties with well or septic systems, and homes inside HOA communities. You don't need to pass an insurance inspection, satisfy an association's approval process, or bring anything up to current code before we make an offer. Our process is the same one we use everywhere: contact us with your property details, get a fair, no-obligation cash offer within 24 hours, and close in as little as 7 days if you want to move that fast - or on a later date of your choosing. No repairs, no agent commissions, no financing contingencies to fall through.

Can my insurer refuse to renew my policy just because of my roof's age?
Not if the roof is under 15 years old - Florida Statute 627.7011 says an insurer can't refuse to issue or renew solely for that reason. Once the roof turns 15, the insurer can require an inspection at your expense, and if that inspection shows 5 or more years of useful life remaining, it still can't refuse to renew based on age alone.
Does this rule apply to my policy?
The roof-age provisions in Florida Statute 627.7011 apply to homeowners' insurance policies issued or renewed on or after July 1, 2022. If your policy is older than that, check with your carrier or an insurance agent about which version applies.
