Florida’s Insurance Market Shows Early Signs of Recovery — Here’s What Professionals Should Know
Florida’s property insurance landscape, long marked by volatility and rising premiums, is finally showing authentic early signs of stability. According to a new campaign from the Americans for Prosperity Foundation, the insurance reforms passed by state lawmakers in recent years are beginning to deliver measurable progress for homeowners, businesses, and insurers across the state.
A Changing Market: New Insurers, Lower Litigation
The Foundation’s statewide mail and digital campaign highlights encouraging trends that have emerged since the Florida Legislature enacted major reforms in 2022 and 2023. These reforms focused on curbing excessive litigation, eliminating one‑way attorney fees, and tightening consumer protections — all in an effort to bring insurers back to the state while easing financial pressure on Floridians.
“Florida’s property insurance crisis called for meaningful reforms,” said Skylar Zander, state director for Americans for Prosperity‑Florida. “We are now seeing that the market has stabilized. Newer insurers are writing property insurance policies in the state, and litigation costs are declining.”
Zander also noted a development many homeowners have been eagerly waiting for: some Florida residents are beginning to see rate decreases — a promising sign after years of steady premium hikes.
Why This Matters for Real Estate and Insurance Professionals
For professionals across Florida — including real estate agents, mortgage loan officers, insurance agents, appraisers, and property managers — a more stable insurance market has direct implications for business activity and consumer confidence.
Lower litigation costs and new insurers entering the market may help improve:
• Home affordability
• Closing timelines
• Insurance availability for older or coastal properties
• Buyer confidence in long‑term investment stability
• Underwriting flexibility for insurers

AFP’s Education Campaign: What’s Included?
The organization’s new campaign includes statewide mailers and digital outreach aimed at helping Floridians understand how the reforms are shaping a more competitive and sustainable market. The campaign emphasizes reduced legal expenses, increased insurer participation, and stronger consumer protection measures.
According to AFP, this is only the beginning — the Foundation plans to continue its outreach efforts as additional results emerge from the reform package.
