Living on Lava

[kapohokent]

Interesting and useful info. Does anyone know if the insurance out there is by the State or a private insurer. Also, can a unpermitted house obtain insurance????

Lodes (sp?) of London insurance heard last year would insure..don't know about permitted or not. Did hear he was hopeing it would come to lava.

Lloyds of London. Just for fun I got a rough quote on a simple $250,000 house in Zone 1. Annual premium would have been $2600.00

Just over $200 month. For sitting on moving lava, a good investment if you are actually going to build a $250,000 house there. However, most people building there would build a much less expensive dwelling, thus the $100,000 house would probably be $100 a month.

Is there a local contact for Lloyds of London???
