Frequently asked questions

What are the biggest home insurance risks in Big Sur, CA?

Homes in Big Sur face elevated flood, wildfire, landslide, and earthquake risk. Carriers weigh these hazards when they price and underwrite a policy, so mitigating them can improve both your insurability and your premium.

Do I need separate flood insurance in Big Sur?
