Default Demanding Home Insurance Companies

In article ,
says...

I know they are trying to protect their losses but should they be able
to threaten their customers like this?


The only threat they have is to decline to do business with someone
who won't properly maintain their property. If the insurance company
is being picky about something unimportant, it shouldn't be hard to
find other insurance. If it isn't easy to find other insurance, that
should be a clue that the company isn't being unreasonable.

In my experience, it isn't hard to insure a house with a bad roof,
you just have to pay twice as much and accept a policy that excludes
any damage related to the bad roof. Myself, I'd rather fix the roof.
