What is the name of your state? CA
My mother has had homeowners insurance with one company for about 14 years. She has made two claims, both in the past 2 years, both due to water damage caused by tenants renting the condo above hers. She was notified that her policy will not be renewed when it expires in April.
She's called several companies trying to get new coverage. Only one will give her insurance, at about $1,200 more per year than her previous premium. Is is reasonable to seek compensation from the tenant or the owner of the other condo to cover the increase in premiums?
Thanks for any help or comments. I tried posting this in the Small Claims forum, but didn't get any response.
