    Insurance Is Dropping Me

    It's a long story, and one that wasn't my fault (agent f'd up), but the short version is I'll be without homeowners insurance as of August of this year. I'll write the whole story later, right now I'm just p*ssed off.

    So the basic facts right now:

    State: Michigan

    License: Group Home, up to 12 children

    Home type: Manufactured home

    If anybody in Michigan has a manufactured home and runs a home daycare, please either respond to this thread or PM me. I've been on the phone for the better part of the week and I'm hitting a dead end.

    The issue is it's a manufactured home, if it was stick built it wouldn't be a problem, but it's not. So that's where I'm at.

    I'm so sorry! I hope you can find good insurance quickly!

    Ours dropped us a couple of years ago because of "too many" claims and the same company dropped my FCC friend because of a bigger claim for tornado damage.

    Insurance companies stink.

        Where are you in Michigan? My husband has a friend that owns a Farm Bureau agency in Saginaw. I can ask him if they would do insurance. You're looking for homeowners and also daycare?

          Farmers ins.

          The only company I know that insures for 12 kids is farmers, they are high but the only company that will insure with lic for 12. I have searched for more over the years and none exist.

            That's the company I gave you the number for BumbleBee. Did you reach Ryan?

                  State Farm limits it to 6 from what I have learned - I've been insured thru them in 4 states now... I tried to up it in another state, but nope.

                        Foremost said no for me. Not sure if it's the license for 12 or what but it was a definite no.

                          Honestly I haven't made any calls in 2 weeks. I have his number, I will call him. Last 2 weeks of school were crazy after crazy. Haven't had any quiet time to make a call. May just email him instead.

                              My husband used to work with him until my husband got a job at the hospital. He wrote my daycare license. I'll message my hubby's name to drop when you call him.
