Insurance as a Deal-Maker or Deal-Breaker in Florida Real Estate 1.13.26

Florida’s insurance landscape can make or break a real estate transaction. From binding coverage to navigating inspections and Citizens eligibility, insurance issues increasingly influence contract timelines, negotiations, and closings.

Join insurance expert Tanya Johnson of Reliable Insurance for a practical, real-world discussion designed specifically for Florida real estate professionals. This session will break down how today’s insurance requirements and recent legislative reforms impact residential transactions, and what Realtors should be watching for early in the process.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How insurance requirements can affect contract deadlines and closing timelines

  • Common inspection issues that delay or derail coverage

  • Understanding Citizens policies and eligibility challenges

  • How recent insurance reforms are changing the market

  • Red flags to identify early to help prevent last-minute surprises

This Lunch & Learn will equip Realtors with the knowledge to proactively spot potential insurance obstacles, communicate more effectively with clients, and help keep deals moving toward a successful closing.
