About First Time Buyers in Louisiana

First-time buyers in Louisiana face one of the most complex insurance markets in the country. Your lender requires homeowners insurance before closing — plus flood insurance if you're in a FEMA flood zone.

Understanding hurricane deductibles is essential: most Louisiana policies have a separate percentage-based deductible for hurricane claims that's much higher than your standard deductible. On a $200K home, a 5% hurricane deductible means $10,000 out of pocket.

Bundling with auto provides important savings in Louisiana's expensive market — 10–20% off both policies.
