Homeowners Insurance in Vero Beach, FL
Owning a home in Vero Beach is a dream for many—but protecting that dream takes the right coverage. At Complete Trust Insurance, we provide homeowners insurance tailored for Florida living, from high-value coastal homes to family residences in inland neighborhoods. As an independent insurance agency, we work with multiple top-rated carriers to match you with the best policy for your needs and budget.
Comprehensive Home Insurance for Florida Homeowners
Living in Vero Beach means enjoying sun, surf, and waterfront beauty—but it also means preparing for hurricanes, tropical storms, and rising construction costs. That’s why we take the time to understand your property, location, and risk factors before recommending coverage. Whether you’re in Indian River Shores, near the Historic Downtown, or in a newer development west of US-1, we’ll create a policy designed for your specific needs.
What Does Homeowners Insurance Cover?
Most homeowners policies in Florida include:
Dwelling Coverage
Repairs or rebuilds if your home’s structure is damaged by a covered peril
Personal Property Coverage
Protection for belongings inside your home, such as furniture, clothing, and electronics
Liability Protection
Coverage if someone is injured on your property or you cause accidental damage to others’ property
Additional Living Expenses
Help covering temporary housing costs if your home becomes uninhabitable due to a covered loss
Standard policies do not include flood damage—a key reason why we often recommend adding a separate Flood Insurance policy.
Florida-Specific Considerations
Insuring a home in coastal Florida is different than anywhere else. In Indian River County, many policies include separate hurricane or windstorm deductibles. Replacement cost coverage is especially important here due to high construction costs and material availability after storms. Even if your lender doesn’t require it, flood coverage is smart—Vero Beach’s proximity to the Indian River Lagoon and Atlantic Ocean means even inland homes can face flooding after heavy rain.
Optional Coverages & Endorsements
Your homeowners policy can be customized with extra protections, such as:
Scheduled Personal Property
For high-value items like jewelry, art, or collectibles Valuable Items Insurance
Umbrella Liability
Extends your liability protection beyond home and auto policies Umbrella Insurance
Wind Mitigation Credits
Discounts for qualifying hurricane-resistant features like impact windows or a fortified roof
Water Backup Coverage
For damage caused by backed-up drains or sump pumps
Savings & Bundling Opportunities
We help clients maximize their coverage while keeping costs competitive. Many save by bundling home and auto insurance with the same carrier
Auto Insurance. Others take advantage of Florida discounts for security systems, wind mitigation improvements, or gated community locations.

Frequently Asked Questions About Homeowners Insurance in Vero Beach
What does homeowners insurance cover in Florida?
A standard homeowners policy generally covers the structure of your home, your personal belongings, liability protection, and additional living expenses if you can’t live in your home after a covered loss. Coverage specifics vary by carrier, so we tailor each policy to fit your property and needs.
Does my homeowners insurance include flood coverage?
No. Standard home insurance does not cover flood damage caused by storm surge, rising water, or heavy rain. Flood insurance must be purchased separately—and in Vero Beach, it’s often a smart choice even if it’s not required by your lender.
Why are Florida homeowners insurance rates higher than other states?
Florida’s rates are influenced by hurricane exposure, coastal location, and the cost of rebuilding after a storm. In Vero Beach, proximity to the ocean or Indian River Lagoon can also affect premiums. We help clients find discounts and match them with carriers who specialize in Florida risks.
What is a hurricane deductible?
In Florida, many policies have a separate deductible that applies specifically to damage from hurricanes. This amount is often a percentage of your home’s insured value, not a flat dollar figure. We’ll walk you through what your deductible means and how it affects your coverage.
Can I get discounts on my homeowners insurance?
Yes. Many carriers offer savings for wind mitigation features like impact-resistant windows, hurricane shutters, upgraded roofing, security systems, and bundling home and auto coverage with the same insurer.
Do I need extra coverage for high-value items?
If you own expensive jewelry, fine art, collectibles, or other valuables, your standard policy may not fully cover them. In that case, we can add scheduled personal property coverage to protect those items.
