Lava zone 1 and 2 insurance - EightFingers - 04-09-2009

...is not available for lots larger than 5 acres. Take this into account when buying your land!

RE: Lava zone 1 and 2 insurance - David M - 04-09-2009

Interesting. Wonder why, as most insurance (except liability) is for the structure not the land.

Can you separate it?
Say,one lot yours,the other - you wife's.

One smaller for the house and the other one for the garden or something..

I don't know how much of a legal headache it is,but worth trying.


RE: Lava zone 1 and 2 insurance - EightFingers - 04-10-2009

It doesn't affect us, we're using Lloyds of London which will be cheaper than HPIA.

StillHope, that would require subdividing-request for rezoning-hearing-improvements. Probably not worth it.
David, I asked and the agent said they didn't know why either. You can't insure land. He said it was just a "quirk" in the way business is in Hawai'i.

Whoa! This is the first time I heard that Lloyds is cheaper then HPIA! It used to be astronomical to insure with them.
There has never been "land insurance" here since there is nothing to insure. I can imagine someone overly cautious wanting liability insurance on land in case a trespasser gets injured there, but that would be the only insurance one might need.

I heard from someone else in Seaview that Lloyds is cheaper and includes hurricane than getting HPIA and hurricane, so will probably switch to them this year.

RE: Lava zone 1 and 2 insurance - StillHope - 04-26-2009

A question ton Dan de Soto

I've already paid for year for HIPA as a part for my construction loan.How can I switch to Llloyd's? Or do I have to wait for a year?

Don't jump the gun, first get a quote. If it's better than get the new policy and cancel the old one. Your lender requires the insurance so make sure yours don't lapse.
