In Part 2 of Elise’s conversation with Tate Ficker, founder of the Ficker Insurance Group, we dive deeper into the real-world concerns homeowners face when it comes to wind, rain, flooding, and rising insurance premiums—especially in today’s shifting climate.
We explore how natural disasters in other parts of the country are subtly but steadily influencing insurance costs in Maine, which—despite these pressures—still boasts some of the lowest premiums nationwide. Tate explains how local property owners can protect themselves by being proactive, conducting annual insurance reviews, and understanding what’s in (and out) of their policy.
Tate also shares his two top recommendations for Maine homeowners this spring, and we wrap up the episode with some of his favorite podcasts, books, and what he’s working on to keep his own work-life balance in check.
