I sell a large amount of STR in this area and these are 2 of the agents I suggest as they are aware of what is needed for STR homes.

Hi Junzhou,

I own property in 34747 and near by zip codes. Insurance runs from $1,000 to $1,200 per year. However, I've been with my insurer for a number of years. For new owners, rates can be much higher. When my tenants bought one of my properties last year, their insuance was 50% more than I had been paying. These are all homes without pools. A holiday home with a pool would kick up the costs.

Hope this gives you rough idea of cost. I'd be happy to refer you to my insurance agent in Celebration, who's done a great job for us.

I agree with Marty.

One option to get quotes is to check out a website like http://www.BrandedQuotes.com - you submit information on the property you want to insure and get multiple quotes. I find that my client's quotes can vary dramtically from provider to provider - this way you get several competetive quotes.

FIRST ANSWER

Hi Junzhou,

I would not want to hazard an estimate. You may want to contact a firm I use for more info/rates, Nationwide Insurance, who frequently brokers these type of policies through a firm called ASI. Their number is 407-856-0000, ask for Elizabeth.

Also, if you are not working with a Broker and would like real estate information and or assistance, we would welcome the opportunity to help. We work with many vacation/2nd homeowners in the West Kissimmee corridor.
